CYMS Football Club had played in a number of different competitions, notably the
Footscray District Football League and the CYMS Football League, prior to
joining the VAFA in 1984. The club's tally of 14 senior premierships up to
that point was immediately added to thanks to a 19.10 (124) to 11.17 (83) C
Section grand final win over Preston MBOB.
Known as the Seagulls, the
club has not won any further senior premierships since 1984, but has
nevertheless moved steadily up through the grades. It was a losing grand
finalist in F Section in 1990, in E Section ten years later, and in D2 Section
in 2001.
The Seagulls competed in D2
Grade in 2006, winning 5 and losing 13 games to finish 8th, ahead of relegated Ivanhoe
Assumption only on percentage. A year later, despite managing 1 more
win for the season, they succumbed to the drop, albeit only on percentage behind
Bentleigh and Salesian.
