The Braybrook Sporting Club is an Australian rules football club which compete in the Western Region Football League since 1931.[2] They are based in the Melbourne suburb of Braybrook. Their home ground is Pennell Reserve, at the corner of Burke and Cranwell Streets.
The club is not affiliated to the Essendon Football Club, but also adopts the black jumper with red sash as its primary jumper, with the reverse being utilised for jumper-clashes with similarly uniformed clubs.
Braybrook was relegated to Division 3 in 2014, when the competition split into 3 divisions from the previous 2. They remained in Division 3, despite winning the WRFL Division 3 Senior premiership in the 2014 season. The club persevered through a remarkable finals series in 2022, winning the premiership against the Wyndham Suns to see them elevated to Division 2 ahead of the 2023 season.
The Braybrook Sporting Club is now home to Men's and Women's senior football teams, Auskick programs and several netball teams across both junior and senior levels.
The club has been home to several players who have gone on to be successful at higher levels, including George Bisset, Doug Hawkins, EJ Whitten and Brian Wilson.
