Welcome to the Home of the ‘Jayco” Daylesford Football & Netball Club.

The Bulldogs are a proud club, with a history of nearly 100 years. After many years of playing in several leagues ranging from the Clunes Football league to the Castlemaine Football League, Daylesford joined, for the second time, the Ballarat Football League in 1952. Over this period, the Demons, as Daylesford were formerly known, managed to win only one senior premiership, which was under the legendary goal kicking machine Jim Gull in 1961. Over 40 years the club was in various positions, including wooden spooners to preliminary finalists, but were never able to rekindle that premiership glory.

After over a decade of struggling to compete with it’s much larger opponents in the Ballarat Football League, Daylesford made the switch to the Central Highlands Football League in 2006 and became the mighty Bulldogs and have not looked back. The Dogs have played in the past three finals series, with a preliminary final defeat in 2006, a Premiership in 2007 and Runners up in 2008. 

2009 looks to be another exciting chapter in this clubs history, with Luke Beattie taking over the reins as Senior coach and a fresh young batch of “pups” coming through the ranks. So we look forward to everyones’ continued support and get behind the ‘Jayco’ Daylesford Bulldogs this year on the football oval and on the netball court.

Keep an eye on this page for upcoming functions, player and sponsor profiles and much much more as this will be our main port of football and netball news to our supporters.

Also a big thank you to Nick Cronin from ncdesigns and Montimedia for helping us set up this page also, both proud sponsors of the club.
