This post is to advise that the AFL Gippsland Commission has approved a request by the Ellinbank & District Football League to move to U16.5 and U18.5 age groups for the 2021 season.
This request was put to the AFL Gippsland Commission after a motion was put to our clubs if they wanted to change our junior age groups for the 2021 season only. The majority of the EDFL clubs supported the motion and therefore it was carried.
The EDFL believe this change will assist retention rates, give the players who missed out last year one more opportunity to play at junior level and a stronger likelihood more clubs will field teams at both junior levels. A win-win for the league, clubs and many players.
