South East Football Netball League

The South East Football Netball League was an Australian rules football competition containing teams in the south-east of Melbourne, Victoria. The 9 teams were all part of the Casey-Cardinia division of the Mornington Peninsula Nepean Football League (MPNFL) competition, which broke away to form a new league in 2015. At the end of 2018 the league opted to merge with the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football League. The final premiers were the Berwick Football Club.

History

edit

The competition had its origins in the South West Gippsland FL from 1954 to 1994. In 1995 the league was rolled in the MPNFL and the administrative duties were taken by the MPNFL management. While under the MPNFL control there were three minor re-distributions of clubs and that created different divisions, most of the clubs were in the MPNFL Northern Division 1995–98; MPNFL Peninsula Division 1999–2004;& MPNFL Casey-Cardinia League 2005–2014

Breakaway

edit

A spokesman for the CCFNL clubs Kahl Heinze said "There was excitement and elation to have reached this point in the process. Poor communication, a lack of financial transparency and management, lack of strategic direction and a lack of service to the CCFNL clubs were some of the grievances that led to the clubs pursuing the move for independence. We will be able to develop corporate partnership that spans both seniors and juniors specific to our region, build a dynamic and competitive competition in both football and netball that attracts other teams, hence the reason we’re not calling ourselves Casey Cardinia. We will be able to work with the juniors on what are the best pathways to senior footy.” [1]
