The Hills Rangers FC was formed prior to the 2014 AFL season, by a merger of the Eastern Hills Hawks and the Darlington-Parkerville Warriors. Triggered by declining participation levels within the Mundaring shire and the desire to provide a more complete pathway for junior football in the hills, the Rangers was initially set up to cater for male youth players from yr 7 through to yr 12.
Since the first season in 2014, the club has evolved to include girls from years 3-12 as well as a Women’s Amateur team, with a vision to establish a Colts team in the future.
