LODDON VALLEY FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE

The Loddon Valley Football Netball League (LVFNL) was formed in 1903 by the Inglewood, Bridgewater, Newbridge and Arnold’s Bridge clubs.

Inglewood and Bridgewater withdrew in 1908 to form the Korong District Central Association with Korong Vale and Wedderburn. The Loddon Valley Association remained based around the Newbridge area until the Bridgewater and Inglewood clubs returned in the late 1930s.

The centre of the league shifted to Inglewood with the inclusion of Bears Lagoon – Serpentine after WW2.

Gradually the smaller clubs such as Rheola, Logan, Arnold’s Bridge and Bealiba folded or left the competition until in 1956 northern clubs Calivil, Mitiamo and Yarrawalla were admitted.
