Tongala initially wore a red jumper with black horizontal bars in 1894. In 1919, Tongala's application for admission into the Goulburn Valley Football League was rejected on the grounds that Tongala was not a strong enough team. In 1937, the club's colours were yellow and black. The club has participated in a number of local football leagues over the years with great success.
