The Collingwood Football Club announced today that it had reached a historic agreement with the Yarra City Council for the club to return to Victoria Park.
The club’s submission to the Yarra City Council was unanimously approved at a packed council meeting held last night at the Richmond Town Hall.
Beginning in 2010 Collingwood will play all its VFL home matches at Victoria Park.
As part of the submission Collingwood will also work in partnership with the Yarra City Council to host, operate and support a series of community programs providing benefits to local community groups at Victoria Park and in the City of Yarra.
Collingwood President Eddie McGuire addressed the council meeting to present and support the club’s submission.
