Hi everyone,
A number of our girls teams and our senior women got their season underway last weekend, playing practice matches against Diamond Creek FC in hot and windy conditions. Well done to everyone that took part. It’s great for our teams to have a hit-out so early in our pre-season. Special thanks to our new Junior Secretary,
Wayne Chadwick, for pulling the day together.
2025 SEASON DATES To help with any forward planning during the year, the 2025 season dates are available via the link below. As communicated last week, we also have practice matches scheduled on the 23rd & 30th of March v Ascot Vale Panthers and Essendon Doutta Stars.

Have you heard about our 2025 referral program? We are offering a $50 voucher if an existing MVFC player/family refers any new player that leads to a new registration.
