The KJFA merged with the Eastern Football League in 1998 and the Eagles have participated in the EFL from then to the current day. In the 2006 season the Knox Eagles merged with Ferntree Gully to form the Ferntree Gully Eagles. The club fields teams from Under 9s through to Under 17s as well as All abilities teams and 2 Auskick Clinics.
