With season 2010 commencing the second half of the Home & Away series, 2011 was considered at the League's Delegate's meeting held at the Shepparton R.S.L. Club on Wednesday 23rd June 2010. It was agreed to by all clubs who were present that Season 2011 will commence on Saturday 2nd April and conclude on the Sunday after the A.F.L. Grand Final which is Sunday 25th September 2011.
Easter will be late on 2011 with Good Friday being on April 22nd - the Shepparton Swans have flagged interest in hosting their Round 4 game on this day. It is proposed to have a split round over the Easter long week-end and the following Saturday April 30th. We will be applying to play the Ballarat Football League on the Saturday May 21st where a General Bye is proposed. The second split-round is being proposed to be on Round 16 on Saturday August 6th & Saturday August 7th. Our Elimination and Qualifying finals will be played on the week-end of September 3rd & 4th, our First & Second Semi Finals on September 10th & 11th, the Preliminary Final at Deaklin Reserve on Sunday 18th September and the Big One on Sunday September 25th.
Clubs and interested persons are being asked to contact the GVFL if there are any good ideas to add to the spectacular for this year's Grand Final - remember last year we were to have parachutists land in the middle of Deakin before the Senior game but it was too windy. How about a netballers 200 metre dash or a footballers 880 metre run around the boundary at half time?
