Subscriber only WITH an increase to 65 teams this season, Springfield United officials were asked how big do they want the club to get. Dedicated club president Scott Harding answered: I said as big as we can . The club built on strong family foundations has grown from 28 teams and 350 players in 2016 to more than 60 sides and 800 players preparing for 2021 Football Brisbane competitions. That includes a Capital League 2 men s side, City League teams, three women s combinations and a healthy junior representation. Even with COVID challenges last year, the Springfield club still fielded more than 50 sides, including 27 junior teams. Harding was delighted to see the expansion continue at the club s impressive new base at the Springfield Central Sports Complex.
