Townsville Kern United

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Townsville Kern United is the predecessor of the current North Queenslad Football Federation (NQFF) State Premier League team, the North Queensland Razorbacks.

Townsville Kern United enjoyed much success in the state competition during the 1980's, producing much local talent. This is often considered the glory days of football in North Queensland, where each home game attracted attendances of up to 10,000 spectators at the Townsville Sports Reserve.[citation needed]

Townsville Kern United also managed to attract several high profile players, such as Paul Wormley, who had previously played professional football in England for Barnsley.
