GLENUNGACurrent Affiliation: South Australian Amateur Football League (SAAFL) since 1960 Home Ground: Webb Oval Formed: 1954 as Hyde Park; renamed Glenunga in 1968 Colours: Light blue and navy blue Emblem: Rams Senior SAAFL Premierships: Division Two - 1961, 1977 (2 total); Division Three - 1960 (1 total); Division Four - 1965, 1995 (2 total) Hyde Park Football Club was admitted to the South Australian Amateur Football League in 1960 and won an A3 Grade premiership on debut. The following year the club made it two flags in succession when it went top in A2 Grade. After that, there was a perhaps inevitable decline, and when the Rams next achieved premiership success in 1965 it came following three relegations and was therefore in A4 Grade. The club’s 1965 A4 Grade flag was its last as Hyde Park. Since 1968 the club has been known as Glenunga, and has added another two senior grade premierships, one in A4 Grade and one in A2 Grade. However, the highlight of the Rams’ existence to date was their noteworthy achievement in reaching an A1 Grade grand final in 1978, albeit that it ended in defeat at the hands of Payneham.
