Miranda Magpies has the honour of being the first Club to join the Association at the inaugural meeting which was held at the old School of Arts in Kiora Road, Miranda in 1951. Miranda also had a team, Miranda Congs, playing in a three team competition as far back as 1929.

Unfortunately, not a great deal is known about the Club from 1951 to until; 1958, when it became part of Miranda magpies Sports Club and it was controlled by a central committee, along with cricket and netball.

On 10th November 1967, Magpies again became a club in their own right. Jim Chamberlain became the first president. In 1968 Magpies had 44 teams with 537 registered players.

Many players have worn the famous black and white colours with several going onto higher representative levels.

Miranda has changed so much over the past 50 years, from being a semi-rural area where everyone knew everyone else, to what it is today, the commercial heart of the Sutherland Shire. This development has had an impact on the Club as there has been a diminishing number of players in the junior ranks.

A debt is owed to those people, far to many to mention, who over the years have kept the Magpie flag flying high.
