AFL Mackay is an amateur Australian rules football competition formed as the Mackay Australian Football League in 1970. It is headquartered in the city of Mackay with further clubs in Airlie Beach, Sarina, Alligator Creek, Pioneer Valley and Moranbah. The representative team is known as the Crows. The Premier division is now sponsored by Allied Pickfords Australia (renaming it to Allied Pickfords Cup)

History

Original clubs formed in 1970 were East Mackay Demons, West Mackay Magpies (later Walkerston), and North Mackay Colts.

  • 1971 saw Bakers Creek join.
  • 1975 Moranbah joined and stayed until 1982 when they returned to the central highland due to work commitments.
  • 1977 saw another new club, Mackay City.
  • 1980 Dysart joined
  • 1982 Middlemount joined. Dysart and Middlemount along with Moranbah returned the central highlands as shift work was being the killer for the teams.
  • 1983 there came a break away from the North Mackay team and they called themselves Trend United.
  • 1985 Airlie Beach came into the competition. They changed their name to Whitsunday in 1990.
  • 1987 East Mackay and Trend United amalgamated to become known as Eastern Swans.
  • 1989 Moranbah came back but the same problems arose, shift work and in 1993 again returned to the central highlands.
  • 1990 Mackay City changed their name to Northern Beaches and then back to Mackay City in 1998.
