History
A Brief History ...

The Geelong West Sporting Club (formerly Geelong West Cricket & Football Club) has had a long and successful history in Geelong sporting circles. We are called the Cheetahs but probably better known as Blue West, which was the name used by most locals to distinguish the club from the Geelong West VFA club (Red West). 

The club commenced in 1926 in the Geelong Football Association winning our first flag n 1935. We joined the GDFL in 1946 and was runners-up to East Geelong in the Grand Final. The Cheetahs competed in the Evelyn Hurst/Geelong Football League competition from 1958 until 1985. Since 1986 the club has competed the Geelong and District Football League.

Blue West has always been a blue collar club. Traditionally our members are down to earth no nonsense battlers. Little has changed over the years. The club unfortunately still carries the underdog tag but is working extremely hard to re-invent itself. 

Our club still calls Bakers Oval in Shannon Avenue home but nowadays it is used as our training  & social base. Since 2008 our home football & netball fixtures are played at West Oval in Church Street.
