Experience the Victorian Amateur Football Association at its finest with the upcoming Big V Luncheon presented by CitiPower, at the renowned RACV Club on Friday, June 5.
The luncheon precedes a big weekend of VAFA Representative Football, where the Big V Senior Men and Women face off against the Adelaide Football League at Norwood Oval on Saturday 6 June. Later in the year, on July 11, the Under 19 Men’s and Premier B – Division 3 Men’s will take on the Goulburn Valley League at Elsternwick Park.
The annual event promises a memorable luncheon filled with celebration, recognition, and a tribute to some of the most influential figures the Big V has seen. We invite the wider VAFA community to be part of it.

The VAFA honour will the remarkable careers of Big V Champions Ian Rice (Collegians), Matt Handley (Old Xaverians), and posthumously, Dick Chandler (State Savings Bank).
The Big V Luncheon will also feature the presentation of the 2026 playing guernseys for the Senior Women’s and Men’s players selected to don the Big V.
Past and present players, coaches, administrators and footy enthusiasts alike are invited to join us at the RACV City Club in Melbourne CBD for what will be a day of camaraderie and connection.
