Introduction The name - Linhill - was derived from the border suburbs, "Linmeyer" and "The Hill". Linhill was created for the community of Southern Johannesburg to play, enjoy and develop football in a safe environment. Football at Linhill has always been conducted in a mixed environment with equal opportunities for all communities. Football development and assistance to children from financially disadvantaged backgrounds has always been a feature of the club. Over the years, this support has been made possible by the generous help from parents and sponsors.
