NEARING THE TURN OF THE CENTURY, AROUND THE 1880'S THE SMALL RAILWAY TOWN OF NYORA RECRUITED ENOUGH INTERESTED PEOPLE TO PUT TOGETHER THEIR FIRST FOOTBALL TEAM. DURING THE EARLY YEARS OF THE FOOTBALL CLUB, MANY PLAYERS DRIFTED IN AND OUT OF THE TOWN AND THE FOOTBALL CLUB. IT WASN'T UNTIL 1911 THAT THE FOOTBALL CLUB REALLY STARTED TO SETTLE DOWN, AND PLAY SERIOUS FOOTBALL THEIR REWARD WAS THE 1911 PREMIERSHIP FLAG. NYORA'S NEXT PREMIERSHIP CAME TWO YEARS LATER IN 1913, WHEN THEY ONCE AGAIN SHOWED PEOPLE THAT NYORA CAN PLAY FOOTBALL AND PLAY IT WELL. 

AFTER THE TWO QUICK PREMIERSHIPS NYORA HAD A LAPSE UNTIL 1920 WHEN THEY WON THEIR THIRD PREMIERSHIP. IT WAS THEN ANOTHER FIVE YEARS, BEFORE THEIR NEXT PREMEIRSHIP CAME IN 1925. IT WASN'T UNTIL 1930 THAT NYORA FOLLOWED UP THEIR LAST PREMIERSHIP BY ONCE AGAIN DOMINATING THE FOOTBALL SCENE AND BRINGING ANOTHER PREMIERSHIP FLAG HOME.

AFTER THEIR LAST PREMIERSHIP EIGHT SLOW YEARS DRAGGED BY BEFORE NYORA HAD ANOTHER CHANCE AT THE FLAG, PLAYING IN THEIR NEW COLOURS OF NAVY BLUE WITH A RED "V" OR SASH, NYORA FOURGHT STRONGLY AS THEY GRABBED THE OPPORTUNITY AND MADE IT PAY OF, WITH ANOTHER FLAG TO HANG IN THE OLD TIN SHED KNOWN AS THE CLUB ROOMS.

AS THE YEARS WENT BY NYORA RECRUITED NEW PLAYERS AND SOME OF THE OLDER, OR WORSE FOR WEAR PLAYERS DECIDED THAT IT WAS TIME TO THROW IN THE TOWEL, AND EXCERSISE THEIR VOICES FROM THE SIDE LINES.THEN WITH YET ANOTHER CHANGE OF COLOURS TO MAROON WITH A BLUE "V" IN 1946, AND A NEW PRESIDENT IN J. REDMOND AND A NEW SECRETARY IN M. HAWKINS, NYORA ONCE AGAIN SHOWED THEIR BRILLIANT STYLE AND SKILLFULL PLAY TO BRING HOME YET ANOTHER PREMIERSHIP FLAG. AS THE SEASON 1946 FADED AWAY AND THE CELEBRATIONS DIED DOWN , IT WAS'NT LONG BEFORE FOOTBALL LOOKED YOU IN THE FACE. THIS TIME WITH NYORA STARTED OFF A FRESH WITH A NEW YEAR AND A NEW LEAGUE THIS TIME THE BASS VALLEY FOOTBALL LEAGUE AND ONCE AGAIN NEW COLOURS. THIS TIME MAUVE WITH A GREEN "V". NOT ONLY WERE THE COLOURS REVOLTING, BUT A PREMIERSHIP THE YEAR BEFORE, NYORA FAILED TO FOLLOW IT UP WITH ANOTHER GOOD YEAR, IF MALES YOU WONDER WHETHER THE BALL WAS TO FRIGHTENED TO GO NEAR THE NYORA MEN IN THE UNIFORM THEY HAD, OFFICIALS ALSO MUST HAVE FELT THE SAME WAY BECAUSE THE FOLLOWING YEAR THEY CHANGED THEM ONCE AGAIN TO MAROON WITH A WHIT "X:". NYORA ALSO CHANGED LEAGUES THIS TIME TO WGFL AND STUCK WITH THAT LEAGUE FOR TWO YEARS. DURING THE LAST YEAR NYORA HAD WITH THE WGFL WHICH WAS 1949, NYORA PLAYED ALL HOME MATCHES AT LANG LANG, BECAUSE THE GROUND AT NYORA WAS BEING DOZED UP AND ENLARGED. DURING 1948 THE OLD TIN SHED WAS REPLACED WITH NEW CLUB ROOMS (THE OLD RAILWAY REFRESHMENT ROOMS). WHILE TALKING TO FRANK HOROBIN HE SAID "THOSE OLD RAILWAY REFRESHMENT ROOMS WERE THE WORST SPENT MONEY THE FOOTY CLUB HAS EVER SPENT".
