Seven years after Maroochydore and Northshore amalgamated for mutual gain in the senior ranks, the former has severed the partnership and gone it alone.[1]
The decision to de-amalgamate was reached when Maroochydore held a special general meeting on 29 March.
The new entity will be known as the Maroochydore Australian Football Club, or the Roos.
That was the name of the club when it folded at the end of the 1999 season, before its rebirth as Maroochy Northshore for the start of the 2005 season.
