The Kookaburras date back to 1969, two years after Macquarie University had been established.  The club fielded a team in the NSWAFL's reserves competition in 1970, and in 1971 was among the foundation members of the NSWAFL 2nd division, forerunner of the Sydney Football Association.  It spent the 1972 season competing in the Sydney Districts Association before resuming in the SFA in 1973.  After spending many years endeavouring to make their mark the Kookas finally broke through for a senior premiership in 1998, under the coaching of Michael Cockerton.  Further flags were swiftly claimed in 1999 and 2000.

In 2007 Macquarie University won 5 and lost 9 matches to finish 5th in the Sydney AFL's 1st Division competition.
