Burners officially enter Australia Cup for 4th year in a row

Thomas Burchsmith

Swinburne FC has formally entered the Hahn Australia Cup/Dockerty Cup, distinguishing itself as one of the few Sunday League-only clubs to compete.

The Burners have a proud history in the competition most notably with a ‘Cupset’ that saw us gain national attention after defeating Lyndale United a side 8 tiers higher than us.

The fixture is slated for the weekend of the 16th of February.

We eagerly await our opponents whilst also praying it’s not Warrnambool or Mildura.
