Daysdale FC won the Clear Hills Football Association premiership in 1903.[10] In 1904 the re-forming of Clear Hills Football Association fell through as Clear Hills FC refused to play against Daysdale, under their present captain.[11] Thus, Daysdale and Clear Hills did not play in any official competition, while Savenake then joined the Berrigan Football Association in 1904. [12]

Daysdale FC won back to back Federal Football Association premierships in 1905[13] and 1906.[14] Clear Hills then defeated Daysdale in the play off to win the 1907 Federal FA premiership[15] and were again defeated in the 1908 grand final by Balldale.[16]

Daysdale FC joined the Coreen & District Football Association in 1910 and won the premiership,[18] were undefeated premiers in 1911[19] and won their third consecutive flag in 1912.[20] Daysdale went onto win four more premierships in - 1961, 1962, 1964 and in 1994 on their 100th Anniversary.[21]

Daysdale's home ground venue in their early days was at Coad's Tank.[22] [23]

Daysdale were runners up in the Coreen & DFA in - 1913,[24] 1914,[25] 1915,[26] 1920,[27] 1923,[28] 1932[29] and 1937.[30]

In 1995, Daysdale merged with Coreen to form the Coreen Daysdale United FC and played in the Coreen & DFL until 2005, when the club then merged with Hopefield - Buraja to form the Coreen Daysdale Hopefield Buraja United FC (CDHBUFC) who played in the Coreen & DFL in 2006 and 2007, winning senior football premierships in both years, before joining the Hume Football League in 2008 after the Coreen & DFL folded after the 2007 season.
