Border Downs Tintinara Crows

The Border Downs Tintinara (BDT) Football Club is located in Tintinara and Coonalpyn. The club has been in the Mallee Football League since 2001. The BDT FC was formed after the Border Downs and the Tintinara clubs merged. Before the Mallee Football League BDT was part of the River Murray Football League. BDT and Karoonda are the only teams in the league to not be on the Mallee Highway, which means it takes a lot longer for most of the teams to travel to. Many teams have forfeited because of this.

The BDT FC in recent years has dominated the B grade and the Junior Colts, in 2006 BDT were premiers in every grade apart from the Junior colts which finished fourth in the Lightning Carnival. The "A" grade team took victory against the Lameroo Hawks as did the "B" Grade. The senior colts team defeated the Pinnaroo Supa Roos with Dustin Head winning the best on ground medal.

At the conclusion of the 2007 season, two Border Downs Tintinara teams were victorious in their grand finals. The senior colts beat the Lameroo Hawks with a score of BDT 14 goals 11 points to Lameroo 7 goals 14 points. The game saw Jake Leske earn the Best On Ground and Paddy Barrett receive the Best Team Man, and a great individual effort from Will Sandford. The A grade team narrowly beat the Murrayville Bulldogs 16 goals 17 points 113 to Murrayville 15 goals 14 points 104.
