Built by our community.
Kept for generations.
The story of a new club, the people who put their hands up, and a trophy that will always remind us where we began.
Discover our story
A place to play. A place to belong.
When the children saw the inauguration trophy, their excitement captured everything we had been working towards: pride in their club and the feeling of being part of something special.
Tarneit North Football Club began taking shape in 2025 through community conversations and shared planning. Families and local supporters came together around a simple purpose — to give children in Tarneit a welcoming place to discover football, grow in confidence and make friends.
Building that place took commitment. Ideas had to become responsibilities, conversations had to become decisions, and people had to give their time. The club grew through the combined effort of its founding leadership, supporters, coaches, team managers, volunteers and families.
One club. One community. One future.
Our Foundation & Legacy Trophy will remain with the club as a permanent reminder of those beginnings. It honours the people who helped create TNFC and the young players whose enthusiasm gives that work its purpose. As new children arrive and future seasons unfold, it will carry the story of our first chapter.

Celebrating our first season
Our inaugural Presentation Day brought the club together to celebrate players and thank the people who supported them.
Thank you for helping us begin.
We recognise the contribution of our founding leadership — Jatinder Singh Aashat, Mandip Johal, Harsh Kadekar and Amrit Kaur — alongside the wider committee and the families who supported the club’s first steps. We also acknowledge Harpreet Kaur’s service as Secretary as the club continues its journey.
Our thanks go to early supporters Arvind Agnihotri, Amit Sofat, Rajbir Singh, Sonia Gill and Gurbir Singh, and to everyone who offered encouragement, practical help and time during the club’s formation.
Our inaugural-season coaching and team support
The following teams formed part of our 2026 Presentation Day celebrations. Behind every team were adults helping children learn, take part and feel proud of their progress.

|---|---|---|

We thank every coach, assistant coach, team manager, committee member and volunteer whose contribution helped our first season. Each role mattered, whether it was visible on matchday or carried out quietly behind the scenes.
The first season is our beginning.
Our next chapter is about giving more children and families a place in football. Junior development, girls’ and women’s participation, and stronger support for coaches and volunteers remain central to the club’s direction.
Summer football, future seasons and the TNFC Junior Mindset, Confidence & Wellbeing Program are part of the wider work being developed around that purpose. We want to support confidence, respect and a sense of belonging alongside football skills. Current opportunities and arrangements are shared through our programme pages and club communications.
The trophy will stay with TNFC. The responsibility it represents belongs to all of us: to care for what has been built, welcome the next family and give the next young player a reason to feel proud.
