The Central Coast Australian Football League was an Australian rules football league based in the Central Coast region of New South Wales, Australia that was active from 1976 until 1999.
The CCAFL was founded in 1976 when interest of Australian rules football began developing on the Central Coast, a region just north of Sydney, although the sport in the region was played earlier. The Gosford Australian Football Club was founded in 1971, the first and oldest Aussie rules club on the Central Coast, and played in the Newcastle Australian Football League and played their first season in 1972, fielding teams in First and Second grades. It remained there until 1975 when it was decided that the Central Coast needed its own Australian rules football competition.[1][2]
The competition began in 1976 and consisted of 5 teams: Gosford, Narara-Wyoming, Terrigal, The Lakes and Woy Woy. The number of teams continued to grow from 1978 when Killarney Vale were founded and joined the league, playing their first season the same year. Narara disbanded the following year, in 1979. Killarney Vale split to form Bateau Bay in 1984. That same year also saw Gosford Wyoming split up to form Wyoming. Although Bateau Bay remained as a separate club, Wyoming would join back up with Gosford in 1986. North Central Coast, known as the Kangaroos, joined in 1995 and folded after the 1996 season. The number of teams rose from 5 to 8 in 19 years, each club supporting junior and senior teams in different age groups.
After the 1999 season,[3] the league merged with the Newcastle Australian Football League to form the Black Diamond Australian Football League.
