The Old Scotch Football Club, nicknamed the Cardinals, is an Australian rules football club based in the Melbourne suburb of Camberwell.[4] It affiliated with the Old Scotch Collegians Association and maintains a close relationship with Scotch College.[5]
Old Scotch has competed in the top division of the Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) for 72 out of a possible 88 years, the most of any club.[6] The club has never competed lower than the Premier B division, and also held a 35-year continuous playing record in A Section/Premier Division until 2015.[7][8]
As of 2024, the club's men's and women's teams both compete in the Premier Division of the VAFA and the VAFA Women's (VAFAW) respectively.[9]
