2026 VAFA Finals Fixture – August 29-30
The fixture has been released for the Week 2 of the 2026 VAFA Finals Series, featuring Men’s Thirds Preliminary Finals, Premier B, Divisional Women’s Preliminary Finals and Holmesglen U19 Finals.
The second round of the 2025 season is in the books as we lead into the Easter break – here’s a look at some of the highlights from the weekend.
Old Ivanhoe continued their charge in Premier B Men’s although it didn’t look likely at the 16 minute mark of the third term, trailing by 32 points. From there, they went on a 69-10 run to defeat Old Carey by 27!
Uni Blues turned around their one-point loss last week to beat Collegians by five points at Harry Trott Oval, with Will Carrington sealing the deal.
A great tradition is seeing clubs unveil their Premiership flags and that continued on the weekend with teams at home for the first time this season. Therry Penola unfurled their 2024 Division 3 Women’s flag with CEO Jason Reddick and Vice President Sarah Delbosc in attendance.
Round 2 was Tackle Your Feelings Round, where a number of clubs handed our TYF Medals for players judged best on ground. For the Division 2 Women’s game between La Trobe University and Parkside, medals were presented to Kate Bond and Annabelle Crisp.
