Sandringham Dragons is an Australian rules football club playing in the Talent League, the top statewide under-18 competition in Victoria, Australia. They are based at the Moorabbin Oval in Moorabbin, Victoria, representing the southern suburban area of Melbourne. Formed as Central Dragons, the club was one of the founding metropolitan clubs of the competition in 1992 as part of a plan by the Victorian State Football League to replace the traditional club zones with independent junior clubs.[1] This was to help aid in player development and the process of the AFL draft.

The club was originally named the Central Dragons and Based at Princes Park in Caulfield South, Victoria. In 1995 the name of the club was changed to Prahran Dragons as part of the agreement which saw the Prahran Two Blues exit the senior Victorian Football Association. In 2000, the club relocated to the Trevor Barker Beach Oval in Sandringham and changed its name for the new locality. The club has since moved its administration and training base to the upgraded Moorabbin Oval (RSEA Park) in Linton St. Moorabbin.
