The Collingwood District Football Club started life in 1906 and ran until 1938. It was initially Collingwood's unofficial feeder club, but when the VFL introduced an official reserves competition in 1919, Collingwood Districts became Collingwood’s official reserves side.

* Due to the lack of completeness in early records, many players’ individual career records are far from comprehensive. We expect many players would have played more games, or kicked more goals, than their records currently show. As such, these figures represent the best of our knowledge at the moment.
