St George City FA was established by the Board of St George Football Association (SGFA) with the objective to obtain a Football NSW National Premier League (NPL) Youth Licence (13-16) to ensure a full pathway is provided from under 9 (via SAP) through to 16 years for aspiring local players, via the Association.

To achieve this objective, SGFA was required to establish a senior entity to compete in the Football NSW State League Mens competition and ultimately strive for promotion to the NPL 3 Mens competition. Promotion from State League would result in the entity being provided a licence to compete in NPL 2 Youth competitions.

In 2017, SGFA achieved its first objective, winning promotion from State League to NPL 3 Mens and a licence in the NPL 2 Youth league. As a result of this Football NSW required SGFA to establish a new legal entity to compete in NPL and as such St George City FA was born with the its sole purpose (as state in its constitution) to deliver the representative and development programs on behalf of SGFA.

St George City continues to be a success story having had 3 promotions in a short period of time to establish themselves as an NPL club. The Club and program has quickly built itself to be recognised one of the most progressive, dynamic and successful football  organisations in NSW and in 2023 will be competing in the NPL 1 Mens and NPL 1 Youth competitions.
