North Shore Australia Football Club, known informally as the North Shore Bombers is an Australian rules football club competing in the Sydney AFL Premier League and based out of the Sydney suburb of St Leonards, New South Wales. Formed in 1903 it remains one of only three foundation clubs still in existence and generally recognised as one of the more successful clubs of Sydney AFL. The club's current home ground is Mortgage Choice Oval (also known as Gore Hill Oval) in St. Leonards, next to the Royal North Shore Hospital. Gore Hill Oval was redeveloped in 2018 and re-opened in 2019; and is believed to be the first or second senior AFL ground to have a synthetic surface.
Previously nicknamed the Bears, the club has the same playing strip and now logo as the Essendon Football Club in the AFL.
In 2021, the Men's Senior coaches are Daniel Roberts and Ryan Meldrum and the Women's Senior coaches are Craig Tidemann and Josh Barbaro. The club's president is John Goode.
The club fields 12 teams in the Sydney AFL league. Under the revised competition structure for 2024 the club will field senior teams compete in Women's and Men's Premier Division, while both reserves will be in Division 1. Under AFL Sydney's revised divisional structure, North Shore will field their third grade team in Division One, their fourths in Division Two, fifths in Division Three and sixths in Division Four.
The Men's Under 19s compete in the top Division One competition. This team appeared in four Grand Finals in a row from 2014 to 2017, winning premierships in 2015 and 2016 and then won again in 2020. North Shore also fields an Under 19s Division Two team and were the 2022 premiers in this competition.
North Shore fielded a Women's team for the first time in 2017, playing in the Women's Division One competition. Growth in the numbers of players in women's footy has seen the club nominate a second women's team in 2018, a third in 2019 and five teams in 2020. Post covid number reduced the number of teams to 4. The Women's first graded team was promoted to Premier Division in 2020 and a new Women's Under 20 team will be taking the field for the first time in 2024.
