The VAFA, Victoria GAA and the Irish Australian Chamber of Commerce will join forces for exhibition games of international rules football, with the VAFA fielding both men’s and women’s representative sides.
The day bodes as the perfect celebration of Irish culture and will kick off with an exhibition hurling match while children will have the opportunity to check out the Kid’s Zone and give traditional hurling a go.
