The Knights of the Southern Cross (KSC) is an Order of Catholic men committed to
promoting the Christian way of life throughout Australia.
The Order of the Knights of the Southern Cross was founded in Sydney in 1919 with the
approval of the Catholic Bishops of Australia. In 1922 this Order merged with its
Victorian counterpart, The Knights of St. Francis Xavier.
Branches currently operate in many Catholic Parishes throughout Australia and membership is open to all Catholic men over the age of 18.
The work of the Order is divided into portfolios, Economic, Community Relations,
Membership and Social. A variety of other activities exist including Southern Cross Golf Club, a Luncheon Club and a Turf Club.
