The history of Australian soccer clubs is filled with turmoil and triumph. Often in chaos, but always filled with passion, the national competition has seen more than fifty clubs participate since the inception of the National Soccer League in 1977. Financial collapse, factional infighting, court appeals and rebranding has not prevented the triumph that is Australian soccer on the field.

Featuring histories of all clubs to have played in the National Soccer League and the A-League, 'In Turmoil and In Triumph' is a must for soccer fans of all ages.
