Bio
Recruited from Preston and Ormond College, Charles Cameron secured his place in football history as a member of Fitzroy's inaugural VFL squad in 1897. He joined the Maroons as the club entered the newly formed league, featuring in the competition's foundation season. Cameron played a brief role in the forward rotation during his short tenure, managing to boot one goal across his five senior appearances. While his time at the top level concluded after that single historic year, he remains on the books as one of the original players to represent Fitzroy in the VFL era.
