  • Heritage Display: This Sporting Life in Port Melbourne

Learn about Port Melbourne’s sporting history at the Port Phillip Heritage Centre!

Most of the sports clubs that operate in Port Melbourne now have their origins in the period 1860 – 1900, but they are only a fraction of the number that have existed.

From baseball, cricket, to Aussie rules football, and of course Melbourne’s very own Trugo; Port Melbourne has a rich and storied history of sports clubs and memorable athletes.

Come and see the display to learn more!
