LEICHHARDT SAINTS

Leichhardt Saints Football Club (LSFC) is a family oriented sports club that believes in promoting participation in our game and equal opportunity for all players. We are a volunteer run community club that recognises that individual players have different motivations for playing football ranging from highly competitive to social recreation... The club was situated in Norton Street, Leichhardt, and the early teams were made up from the Western Suburbs Soccer Club and the LPCYC. The name Saints came from an amalgamation of junior clubs from St Fiacres, Leichhardt, who joined under the LPCYC banner. In the 1970s Jim Sherratt and Ivan Petrie coached junior sides at the club and from there started the first All Age team, mainly from 17 year-olds, playing in the Sydney Amateur League.
