VAFA launches Women’s Academy Series

South Mornington will join Box Hill North as the latest club to return to the VAFA’s senior competition when they line up in Division 4 in 2018.
After moving into Club XVIII (2) in 2016 due to an ability to field both a seniors and reserves team, South Mornington has taken significant strides over the past two years with a new-look committee and the announcement of a brand-new facility at Citation Oval.
Their off-field improvement culminated in a Club XVIII (1) Grand Final appearance in August, while the Demons were crowned premiers in Section 2 following their entry into Clubbies this year.
VAFA Football Operations Manager, Sam Confait, said both South Mornington and Box Hill North “have fulfilled our requirements on-field and off-field to indicate they are sustainable two-team clubs”.
“The VAFA applauds both clubs in their efforts and we wish them well in their return to our senior sections,” he said.
The two additions to Division 4 ensures a 10-team structure in every senior section of the Association in 2018 whereby teams play one home and one away match against every opposition.
