Campbelltown City Soccer & Social Club "Red Devils" were formed by Joe Natale and other Italian Migrants in 1963, needed players to field a side when they debuted in the old SA third division the following year. But Natale's recruitment drive faced some hurdles, not least City's tin shed change room and the patch of dirt which passed as its original pitch. Campbelltown claimed its maiden league title in 1966 and won promotion to the SA top flight eight years later. In 1976 they amalgamated with Burnside Budapest, who competed in the original Australia Cup under Adelaide Budapest.[1] In 2020 Campbelltown were NPL1 champions of South Australia for the third successive season.[2]
