The GIANTS may be the AFL’s youngest club, having entered the competition at the beginning of the 2012 season, but the GIANTS have already built a rich and proud history.

Since the club's formation, the GIANTS have helped to grow the game in Western Sydney and the ACT through numerous community programs, while the GIANTS' on-field success has also helped to bring new fans to the game, with the club's membership growing year-on-year.

After finding their feet through their formative years in the AFL, the GIANTS have quickly become one of the AFL’s most competitive and consistent teams, with the side enetering the 2025 AFL season having made finals in seven of the last nine seasons.

Despite being only just over seven years old, the GIANTS remarkably made their first AFL Grand Final back in 2019, with the club also producing its first ever Coleman that year as Jeremy Cameron kicking 67 goals in the home-and-away season.

Aiding to its AFL side, the GIANTS formed a partnership with Netball NSW in 2016 which saw GIANTS Netball take to the court in the newly formed Super Netball competition in 2017, making the GIANTS one of only two clubs at the time to have both an elite football and netball team.

In that same year the GIANTS were also granted a license to field a team in the AFL Women's competition. The arrival of the AFLW GIANTS team in 2017 has seen women's football across New South Wales and the ACT flourish, with women’s football becoming one of the fastest growing sports in the country. 

Possessing an AFL, AFLW and Super Netball side since 2017, the GIANTS have built a reputation of a club that not only strives for success, but one that aims to make a positive impact on its community, with their values based around diversity and inclusion.
