The Demons are an amateur Australian Football club based in Mississauga, Canada.
History
The team began in 1989 as the Mississauga Mustangs, an inaugural member of the Canadian Australian Football Association.
On October 12 1989, during half time of an exhibition match between the AFL teams Melbourne Demons and Geelong Cats in Toronto, footy jumpers were presented to the team captain of the Mustangs.
Two days later the Mustangs were defeated by the Panthers 65 to 48, winning the inaugural Conacher Cup.
In 2004, the team was renamed the Demons, and adopted the identity of the Melbourne Demons AFL club.
