A Vision for Inclusive Football

At the heart of Harris Avenue Sports Complex, the Eagles have created more than just a sporting club – they’ve built a community where everyone belongs. The club’s motto, #EaglesAsOne, resonates through every aspect of their operations, from their groundbreaking women’s football programs to their comprehensive youth development pathways.

Eagles women’s football coordinator Karen Steen explains that this motto guides every decision made at the club. “Eagles as one is more than just words and it’s more than a club motto—it’s what we live and breathe by at the club,” she says. This philosophy has driven the club’s remarkable expansion over the past three years.

Building on World Cup Legacy

Following the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the Eagles seized the moment to launch an innovative five-week Come and Try program. The initiative, led by their senior women’s team, attracted over 80 participants. Out of these, 51 registered for the 2024 season, showcasing the program’s success. This achievement has enabled the club to expand its all-girls MiniRoos teams from six to ten, contributing significantly to its growing membership.

From the Little Eagles Kick-Off Program for three-year-olds to competitive senior teams in the Football Queensland Premier League, the Eagles have created pathways for players of all ages and abilities. The club’s social divisions, including Over 30 Women and Over 45 Men’s leagues, ensure football remains accessible to all community members.

The Eagles have also embraced Football Australia’s safeguarding modules, implementing comprehensive protection frameworks for all members. “Having a member protection officer to support players has been a game changer for us,” Steen notes. Their commitment to safety and governance sets a shining example for community sports clubs.

Narangba Eagles FC in 2025

The Eagles understand that a strong community is built on partnerships. They value the contribution of their sponsors, who play a crucial role in providing coaching opportunities, equipment, and maintaining the facilities. Local businesses like Burpengary Community Club, North Brisbane Real Estate, Ambient Projects Australia, Veto Sports, Kennedy Brothers Air Conditioning, Shane King MP, and Greenland Dental Burpengary all play a part in the Eagles’ success story.

Recognition as Club Changer of the Month isn’t just an accolade—it validates the Eagles’ commitment to creating a sporting environment where everyone can thrive. For residents of Narangba and surrounds, the Eagles represent more than just a football club; they’re a cornerstone of community life, fostering connections and creating opportunities for generations to come.

Local families interested in joining the Eagles’ community can now register for the 2025 season and become part of a club that truly embodies the spirit of inclusive, community-focused sport.

“It’s no secret that everybody behind the scenes at Narangba Eagles is a volunteer and even though we’re a large club, we struggled last year to attract more than a handful of volunteers to help,” said Mr Magin.

Mr Magin said having Mr Wheeler and his team running the kitchen as a professional cafe will enable the committee to focus their attention on other areas, projects and developments.

Similar to the one at Zillmere Eagles Football Club, the BadBoys Cafe in Narangba will cater to all dietary requirements. Besides the vegan and plant-based options, they will also have coeliac-friendly meals, as well as menu items free from dairy, nuts, egg, and yeast. 



All items on the menu, including their famous doughnuts, will be made fresh and not processed. Aside from the doughnuts which come in flavoured sugar options, they will also offer raw protein bars, brownies, and waffles.

The one in Narangba will be one of two venues planned by Mr Wheeler for the Moreton Bay region, with one set to open at the Moreton Bay Lions Football Club in Burpengary.
