Sandringham
"In their new incarnation the Zebras appear as well placed as any of their peers to confront the challenges of the emerging century. Traditionalists may bemoan what they see as the dilution of the club’s true identity, but ultimately, in football as in most other walks of life, it is survival which counts."
John Devaney explores the history of the Sandringham Football Club.
