History
Formed in 1970 the club was first named Ashfield Dynamo and competed in the Semi Professional League Division 2 in 1976. Following the Australian Soccer Federation decision to ban all ethnic names at all level of competition, the club was renamed Ashfield Soccer and Sports Club. In 1996 a partnership with Bunbury Tricolore saw the name changing to Ashfield-Bunbury. In 2001 Bunbury Soccer Club decided to strike out on their own (as South West Phoenix FC) and the name changed back to Ashfield Soccer and Sports Club. 2010 saw the name shortened to Ashfield Sports Club.
