Established in 1961, the Albion Football Club is a long standing member of the Western Region Football League and its precursor competition, the Footscray District Football League. The club has enjoyed top level premiership success on three occasions, with its most recent flag coming in 1994 in A2 Section 2 when it overcame the grand final challenge of Sunshine YCW.

Albion currently competes in the WRFL’s division one competition. In 2008, the side performed strongly to qualify for the finals in second place with a 15-3 record. However, its finals form was disappointing, and it nosedived out of the premiership race with straight sets losses to Spotswood by 37 points and St Albans by 57 points.
