[edit] History

One of the youngest clubs in the FFSA league. The club was founded in August 1997 to provide opportunities for the advancement to senior level for players associated with the South Adelaide Colts Club.

When the club was formed it was jointly owned by the Sporting Star and South Adelaide Colts. The club's initial games were played at the Cove Sports Community Centre - a ground known for its heavy winds. The club has since moved to the O'Sullivan Beach Sports Complex.

The Panthers have fielded young teams in the SASF 2nd Division. After initially struggling the Panthers have steadily improved to become a regular mid table side in the 2nd Division. The Panthers are currently coached by Aldo Maricic.
