Merger history
Portland Football Club was formed in 1997 from a merger of Alberton United, Ethelton and Riverside.

Alberton United
The Alberton United Football Club was formed in 1915 as the Alberton Church United Football Club based at Queenstown Oval. Initially playing in the Port Adelaide and Suburban Football Association, Alberton Church United shifted to the South Australian Amateur Football League (SAAFL) in 1931. In 1941, they went into recess due to World War II, before returning to the SAAFL in 1946. In 1955 Alberton Church United changed its name to Alberton United, and continued under that name until it merged with Ethelton and Riverside in 1997 to form Portland.
