The Goulburn Valley Football League will induct a third group of members at the annual Hall of Fame function to be held on Sunday 3 July at the Shepparton RSL.
The invitation only event is a major one on the League’s calendar and for the third year in a row eight of the League’s past stars will be inducted into the Hall of Fame to recognise their crucial role in making the League what it is today.
A major highlight of this year’s event will be the induction of the first Legend into the Hall of Fame. The Legend will be elevated from the current 16 Hall of Fame members.
Chairman of the GVFL Hall of Fame Committee Freddo McMahon is delighted with the success of the Hall of Fame and is looking forward to the auspicious annual event.
"The GVFL Board has appointed a committee of eminent football people who have the responsibility of researching the GVFL history and recommending people to be inducted into the Hall of Fame" he said.
"The committee considers the performances of players, coaches, administrators and media people for induction and recognition of their services."
"This year the committee will consider more people who have not only excelled on the football field, but have contributed to the League as coaches, Inter League players and administrators."
"Amongst this year’s inductees are two administrators who have been instrumental in shaping the League, a celebrated interleague Coach and one of the best ever goalkickers in country football."
"Whilst the identify of the first Legend to be elevated will only be announced on the night suffice is to say it will be one of the first 16 Hall of Famers inducted over the past two years."
