“We are excited about the direction the VAFA is taking women’s football and we are looking forward to being a part of this journey,” Greene said.
“By moving to the VAFA, it will allow us to coordinate all our home games together and ensure the club has a strong presence on game day.”
VAFA Women’s Football & Engagement Manager, Shona MacInnes, said “the competition is thrilled to welcome La Trobe’s women’s teams into our community ahead of an exciting third season”.
“La Trobe Uni’s strong history in women’s football is something we welcome and look forward to including into our expanding competition in 2019,” MacInnes said.
“As La Trobe enters its 11th year with a women’s team, there is no doubt the entire club and the VAFA women’s sections will benefit greatly from their participation.”
La Trobe last tasted premiership success in 2011 and joined the NFNL following the disbandment of the VWFL in November 2016.
