The Kyneton District Soccer Club can trace its beginning to 1974 when a soccer
club was formed by David Plant, George Johnson and Stan
Hodgson. Known as Kyneton United, the teams played in
the Bendigo Amateur Soccer League (BASL) and was based
at Malmsbury with a red and white strip.
Over the following seasons the home ground changed to
Kyneton High School (1977) then to Barkly Square (1978
- Present).
The prestigious year of 1979 saw the club win the Division
1 and Division 3 League Championships, the Division 1
and Reserves (now Division 2) Knockout Cup, the Division
1 League Cup and the Reserves 5 A-Side competition.
In 1982 the club split into two, with Kyneton United playing
in the Metro Division 2 and the newly formed Kyneton Soccer
Club (Yellow and Black) playing in the Bendigo League.
The present club, Kyneton District Soccer Club, began
in 1989 as a merger of the two existing clubs with the
new colours of claret and sky blue (West Ham).
1996 saw Kyneton win the second division and come second
in the third division, having been relegated the previous
year.
In 2004 the club fielded 7 teams in the BASL - 1st Division,
2nd Division, Women's, Under 16's, Under 14's, Under 12's
