History

The Imperial Football Club was formed in 1931 after the Murray Bridge Rovers were split into two separate clubs. The Rambler Football Club shared the same oval for 35 years and were the arch rival of the Blues. In 1966 Imperials moved to Johnstone Park after decided the club needed its own ground and clubrooms.
