In last year’s inaugural event D.C Morrison, Tom Hastie, Jack Arthur, Robbie Orrman, Ray Willett, Gary Cooper, Wilf Cox and Anthony McPhee were inducted as the first group of eight members into the auspicious Hall of Fame.
Another eight members of the League’s illuminous history will be inducted on Sunday.
Chairman of the GOTAFE GVFL Hall of Fame Committee Freddo McMahon is looking forward to honouring another eight Hall of Famers.
"Last year’s event was a great success and all of the inductees and their families were really touched with the honour they received" he said.
"The League has a strong history and many high quality players and administrators are an important part of what makes the League what it is today."
"The introduction of the Hall of Fame last year has provided a fantastic opportunity for the League to recognise our past greats for their contributions and to celebrate their achievements."
"As the Hall of Fame Committee we are charged with the enviable task of researching the League’s history and identifying the inductees."
"The Committee considers the performance of players, coaches, administrators and media personalities and evaluates their longevity and service to the GOTAFE GVFL ."
"The inaugural group of Hall of Famers included a triple Morrison Medallist, the League’s first Morrison Medallist and the first player to play 400 games."
"This year the committee has considered people who have not only excelled on the football field, but have contributed to the League as coaches, Inter League players and administrators."
Sunday night’s event is an exclusive invite only function with inductees and their family members, current Hall of Fame members, club representatives and special guests in attendance.
