Sydney FC Hall of Fame

Sydney Football Club is an Australian association football club founded in 2004. In 2015, the club created a hall of fame into which personnel associated with the club are inducted from time to time.

The Hall of Fame is open to players, coaches, administrators, fans and volunteers. Players, coaches and administrators become eligible for induction upon their retirement or departure from the club. Years of service and total games played or coached are considerations, but not necessarily determinative in deciding who is selected. Selections are made by the Sydney FC board.

Australia internationals Alex Wilkinson and Teresa Polias are the most recent representatives of the club to be inducted.
