Founding Story
Originally introduced as the ‘Bigfooty Bombers’ as part of involving the Essendon board in the Sweet Football Association. They began playing organised matches in season 04 at Windy Hill under inaugural captain, dougthelegend. By Season 09 they had become the Baghdad Bombers and moved to Abdu Prison and also spent three seasons as the Baghdad Bandits in the late 10’s.
Former administrator, eagleskickass, accepted the Gumbies application prior to the beginning of season 04. Catman was announced as the inaugural captain soon after. Over the course of their history they’ve been named as the Geelong Gumbies, Wolves, and now Gumbies FFC and have played all their home games at the House of Gumby (previously known as The Lair and Gumby Gardens)
