Gates to Trevor Barker Oval will open at 12pm with the game to begin at 2:30pm. The Grand Final Luncheon will proceed at Sandy by the Bay at Trevor Barker Oval, commencing at 12:15pm.
The William Buck Premier Men’s Reserves Grand Final will be played at Toorak Park, tomorrow, Sunday the 18th of September at 1:00pm. Additionally, the Homesglen Under 19s Premier Grand Final will also be played at Toorak Park, tomorrow, Sunday the 18th of September at 10:00am.
VAFA CEO Jason Reddick had the following to say:
“It’s extremely important that we play the William Buck Premier A Men’s Senior Grand Final on a surface that is suitable to that standard of football. Accordingly, we have made the decision to move tomorrow’s scheduled game to Trevor Barker Oval, Sandringham due to the poor state of Elsternwick Park.
This decision has been fully supported by both St Kevin’s and Old Brighton Football clubs and we thank them for the flexibility and understanding and look forward to showcasing the pinnacle game of our Men’s competition”
