INSIDE THE EFL Time for Change? What a great start to the 2016 season last weekend was across all competitions. On a busy Friday night, the diversity of what the EFL is all about was on display. We saw plenty of action out at Coldstream as the girls under 12s lightning premiership got underway with a great sense of Phil Murton excitement and anticipation on EFL Chief Executive Officer the faces of players and parents alike. Down the road at Oxley College (along with Knox and Rowville) the NetballEFL competition got underway as we see clubs continue to embrace the opportunity to increase female participation within their clubs. And further down the road, Bayswater hosted The Basin in front of a huge crowd to get the Veterans season underway in great conditions. A fine day then greeted us on Saturday with some fantastic games across all grades. A few big upsets and some other teams who look to have taken the next step this year. Bayswater, Mooroolbark, Silvan and Surrey Park were all teams who put their respective divisions on notice with great performances. And on Sunday, blue skies were again out as the junior competition got underway, with St Simons and Mooroolbark in under 17A playing out the first draw of the season. Other great games included Rowville v Vermont Under in 15A and the under 14B Lilydale v Glen Waverly Rovers match. The first few rounds of the AFL season have seen the benefits of analysing the game and making changes where appropriate. The reduction in rotations and other rule changes look to have improved the game at the elite level. We are conscious of the need to consider how the game evolves at EFL level also. Saturday saw the first weekend of new start times and match timings for the reserves and under 19 competitions. With the reserves and under 19s the only two grades across the whole competition not graded, the change has been designed to remove significant time on that had been evident in often one sided games. As a result we have been able to delay the start to game day by 20 minutes and in doing so save in

excess 3,000 hours of volunteer labour across the senior competition this season without impacting on the integrity of the contest. It was trialled with success last year and we are monitoring game lengths over the first few rounds to assess the impact. During the pre-season we presented to Senior Presidents some data on ground sizes and the impact this has on playing conditions for EFL players. Did you know that almost half of EFL senior grounds are less than 75% the size of the MCG? That means EFL players have only three quarters of the space AFL players have to play in with the obvious impact this has on space, skill and congestion. Most of our grounds were built many years ago, when the size of players was very different and the way the game was played was just as different. As the players have got taller, bigger, stronger and faster, and with the likelihood of making grounds bigger minimal, is it worth considering how many players should be on the field. Would a reduction to 16-a-side make a positive difference to how EFL footy is played? Additionally, the structure of the senior competition is often debated. Should division one be a 12 team competition? Are 10 team competitions, where you play everyone twice, the fairest for everyone? With 44 senior teams and in the absence of finding 6 more teams to make it an even 50, are there other ways to structure the competition to get a better result for more teams? Could a restructure also mean more finals, grand finals and premiers, and more teams relegated and promoted to find their best level? If finals are what we all play for does it make sense to look at this, without rewarding mediocrity? All sports are in continual states of evolution. The centre square and circle in our game, basketballs three point line, the back pass in soccer. Rule changes that increase the quality of the game and safety of participants are often sought. Businesses and sports that sit still soon get passed by. And while change should not be made for the sake of change, where information, consultation and research suggests trialling alternatives is worthwhile, it should always be considered. We look forward to discussing a range of these issues throughout the season. Best of luck to all teams this weekend and see you at the footy.

STATS BENCH I’m reckoning that Rowville being on top of the Division 1 ladder is a first for them. The Hawks are obviously looking to build on their first finals’ appearance of last season. Standing in their way of going two-zip is East Ringwood who nailed Noel McPhee their first round one @statsbench victory since 2011. A few pundits have Blackburn pushing up for a return to finals action. The Panthers’ record against Vermont is not too shabby with seven wins from the last 15 matches.

Mitcham and Croydon meet up for the first time in a decade and the first time ever in Division 2. The Blues last three defeats have been by an average of over 70 points. Mitcham will seek to inflict further misery as they go about consolidating their Division 2 status. It’s been 32 years since Mooroolbark had a win over Lilydale back in the days when your correspondent was on the Barkers’ list for one season but unfortunately never played a game after being injured pre-season! I actually remember that win as both teams had lost the first two games and the Mustangs got up late in the last quarter for a memorable win. The Falcons are on a 14 game winning streak in games against the Mustangs since that game. Division 2 Rnd 2 Bayswater East Burwood Mitcham Mooroolbark Wantirna South

Scoresby face up against the first of six opponents that they will meet this year, for the first time ever. South Belgrave were shocked last week by a 13 goal defeat at the hands of Heathmont. The Magpies are the Saints’ 31st opponent in the EFL while the Saints are Scoresby’s 39th opponent. 6

Playing in the first Division 1 season and then in all but one of the subsequent five decades of competition makes for traditional rivals in my view. Warrandyte and Heathmont renew rivalries and face off for the 30th time. Division 3 Rnd 2 Boronia Ringwood South Belgrave The Basin UFTG Warrandyte

Ferntree Gully left their finals run a little late last season with seven wins on the trot. They can extend their winning run to nine with a win over a potential finals aspirant in Glen Waverley Hawks. Last season they shared a win each. A solitary win was Donvale’s return in 2015. They already have one in the bag in 2016. Whilst they lost both matches against the Lions last season, their first round victory and the Lions’ first round loss make the Magpies the favourites to nicely set up their season.

JUDGE TO LEAD YOUNG EFL TALENT By David McPherson – EFL Media For the first time in more than 15 years the Eastern Football League will field an Under 19’s interleague side. The league’s best young talent will play in a one-off match against the Geelong Football League as a curtain raiser to a game between representative sides from the senior divisions of both competitions. The game promises to be an eyecatching affair, with coach Wayne Judge saying that the players would not be weighed down with extensive tactics. “We’ll be keeping things pretty basic, we’re not going to be having complicated game plans or structures… it’ll be really about the players going out and backing their talent and ability.” A limit on structures does not mean that there will be a limit on the stakes of the matchup however. “We will clearly go into the game wanting to be competitive, when you play representative footy you always want to represent the league well, represent the club you play for well and you want to represent yourself well.” Judge predicted that the game would be a hotly contested one, with both leagues boasting impressive unofficial titles. “The EFL is arguably the number one metropolitan league and the GFL is the number one country or rural competition, so the standard of games, both at the under 19 level and obviously at the senior level, will be really high,” he said. Judge believes that the EFL interleague program is built for success despite the tough competition, as it stacks up well in comparison to other leagues. “The EFL is a well-run, well-organised, highly competitive, wellstructured competition that enables players to play to the highest level

The Eastern Footballer

they can,” he said. With the representative game looming, once the season gets under way Judge and his team of selectors are focusing their attentions on games across the league. Clubs have been asked to nominate candidates for selection who they believe will represent the league to the best of their abilities. “We’ll do some marrying up between what the clubs provide us as likely players and what we see when we’re out there on the weekend… there may be other players that catch our eye as well,” he said. “We’ll also cross-reference that against things like league best and fairest results from the previous year and from our local knowledge.” Judge hopes the game will have a future long term, as the representative program is a great opportunity for developing players. “I think that there’s a commitment that we’d like to see an under 19 representative team be a part of the EFL program going forward.” “It’s really important that we get the message out there that this is a really great opportunity for our young players to showcase their skills and ability, and we want clubs to get right behind it.”

MAGPIES TO FLY ONCE AGAIN By Justin Ware, EFL Media You would be hard pressed to find a better story than the Scoresby Football Club this season. In a league that witnesses such tumultuous extremes on the emotional spectrum, there’s a sure bet that every club has experienced trepidation at one point or another. Narrow loses and crippling injuries take their toll on even the most prepared, it’s simply a matter of when, not if. Of course, there are always steps taken; precautions and contingencies for even the most farfetched of circumstances. The elite always pray for a clean bill of health and glowing chemistry on the field, for that game changing instance of the ball bouncing their way. But how do you prepare for a mass exodus? That’s what faced the Scoresby at the end of the 2013 EFL season, in which over thirty players and several administrative personnel left Exner Reserve, a result of issues both on and off the field. For Peter Castledine, there was no denying the truth. He openly admits that the club was almost gone. “Running the club was left to a couple of diehard members to try and hold things together.” The players who did stay pulled together, managing to keep the side afloat. “To the boy’s absolute credit, in the face of the most difficult circumstances they fronted up, week after week knowing that they were unlikely to do much against the strength of the opposition. The moral, mateship and sprit that was shown during that season should be recognised as a significant milestone in the club’s very long history.” Castledine, who was appointed Club Chairman during Scoresby’s last AGM in 2015, has been by the club’s side, witness to the uncertainty of the team’s future. The Pies appointed Brent King the same year and have since extended his contract, in a move geared towards consolidation. Scoresby started last season much like year 2013 ended; suffering numerous blowouts at the hands of superior outfits. It was not until midway through the year that Castledine began to see the light, and although the season did not end perfectly, it was progress. “The 2015 season came down to last kick of the day, at another game, 20 mins after our final game of the year had finished to see us yet again relegated to 3rd Division by 0.06%.” Happy with the progression, nonetheless there was change ahead. “Obviously it was very disappointing, after the improvements made. It was at that point that the entire club collectively thought this is not www.efl.org.au

going to happen again, we are just not going to let it happen.” Scoresby have since revamped their board structure, opting to be proactive to begin the new season. According to Castledine, the club now has a board of management with sub committee’s working with the director of each portfolio within the club, in an exciting move that will reinforce the hard work of the past year. With the list settling into the game plan, the future is trending upwards. “Our vision at this point is small steps. It’s the development of our young players. We had 5 players between 17-19 years of age play in our senior side round one and we will continue to foster that development of our young players. We believe that this will see our club continue to head in the right direction moving forward.” Perhaps the greatest peak of joy in the club’s past eighteen months however; is the upcoming Anzac weekend. Carlton great Anthony Koutoufides is making a comeback. “He has been awesome to deal with,” remarks Castledine “this is a guy that has played at the elite level and has done just about all that can be done as a player. He’s never forgotten grass roots footy. Anthony knows how hard the struggle can be for suburban clubs, we cannot thank Anthony enough for the support he has given the Scoresby Football Club.” The return of a living legend to the field is a masterstroke, and will provide an incredible opportunity to further strengthen Scoresby’s resurgence. “The purpose of having Anthony play with us on the Anzac weekend is to give as many people the opportunity to come and see this champion both on and off the field, close up. This day is aimed at family, friends and community and to give us all the chance to reflect on the Anzac Weekend. Everyone is welcome.” Now boasting over one hundred players across its various teams, the Scoresby Football Club is enjoying unprecedented growth. A proud club which has won six flags, one would think an addition to that number is not far away. Things are truly looking up at the nest. Tickets can be purchased for Round 3 (Anzac Weekend) Scoresby v Boronia online at www.scoresbyfc.org. au or at the gate on the day. Show your support for the Scoresby Football Club and witness the return of Koutoufides in person. 11

DIVISION 1 BLACKBURN: After a strong pre-season, our hit outs in the practice matches held us in good stead heading to Shark Park last Saturday to face a newly promoted Doncaster in front of a fired up home crowd. Our New Coach – Kon Karavias and new players got what was expected as the Seniors held on by 1pt. in a classic first round encounter after being behind all day. With a couple of quality players going down early, we were limited on the bench with rotation but the true Burner spirit held on. Sam and Jimmy Mac were great all day and Jake Hammond showed his class with 4 goals against 2 opponents all day. In a low scoring affair, the Development Team shrugged off their opponents in the last half to recorded a solid win. Dan McGee and Banksy showed some form on the day. The U19’s came up against a strong side with some quality bigs and had to dig deep, kicking 8 goals to 3 after half time, following a rev up by the Coach at the long break. Some positive signs including Joel Merrett having a day out with 4 goals and Jordy Harte and Pete Alier showing form. This week we welcome local rivals Vermin to the Pit in what will be a ripper contest. Our Past Players will enjoy a luncheon and we are hoping for a big crowd. We have our first 300 Club Draw.

VERMONT: What a great start to the year it was. A home game, perfect weather, a huge crowd and three wins. Firstly, before we go further, may we extend our sincere condolences to the Grogan family following the sad passing of Tom, who apart being lovely person has taught literally hundreds of our you players how to drive a car. The Senior game was mostly our way all day and were thrilled at the performances of the new players and the very young ones, including first gamer 18 year old Charlie Young. Best players were many and included Tom Schneider, Liam Buxton, Shane Davidson, Jacob Castricum, Kirby McConnon and Sam Wadley. The Reserves had a tough struggle for the first half, but broke away later for a fairly easy result. Best Players were Brad Neil, Matt Barnard, Ned Coghlan, Xavier Barry-Murphy, Daniel Reid, Wade and Cal McConnon. The Under 19â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were pretty good applying enormous pressure all over the field resulting in an impressive win over a good Norwood side. Better players were Matt McKenzie, Max Healey, Aiden Stephens, Ryan Young, Joel Bleize and Bailey Hotker. The FH Eagles unfortunately went down, but did show that they have lots of improvement coming. Best players :- Sean Bell, James White, Jordan Wright, Nic Dore, Matt Sevior. We are again running our first goal competition and Brian Eaton is looking after it. Ring him on 0402744889 or see him at the footy today. Friday Night Frothies have started. Join us.

DIVISION 1 MONTROSE: Last week we travelled to Balwyn to take on last year’s premiers and they were in no mood to let us forget what it takes to be top dogs. An 8 goal to 2 first quarter had us on the back foot and try as we might, we never recovered. With the ball zipping around the park with precision, it was difficult for us to get possession and then any composure to show our skills. Good individual efforts, but a more team oriented game will be required this week. Best – D.Rickard, Kane, Taberner and Haining. Some very good news though, was the development squad’s effort in defeating last year’s premiers in the curtain raiser. Wayward kicking in the first half saw us down by 9 points at the main break. In the third, we started to get some flow going, but kicking 2.4 didn’t help and we trailed by 3 points at ¾ time. The last was a titanic struggle, but we kept persisting and kicked 2.4 to 1.2 to hold on to record a really good win for our young team. A great team effort. Best – Bennington, Hams, Quirk and Stockton. This week we welcome South Croydon to Montrose for what should be 3 good games of football.

SOUTH CRODYON: Good luck to all teams today against Montrose where we expect three competitive performances. Not the results we wanted last week against the Bulls, however a lot of positives to take out of each game and lots to improve. The seniors in particular showed that the hard work and plans put in place during the preseason will work if we have belief and work as one unit. The reserves battled hard but were undermanned – we need a few more players to help this group out with some depth, and the new batch or U19s showed plenty and fight and signs that they can jell unit a good team. Thank you to all who attended the first President’s lunch, we appreciated your patronage and support. A great day was had by all. We turn our attention to our next home game function Ladies Day Rd 4 on April 30 against East Ringwood – all enquiries to Tracey Adams.

DIVISION 1 NORTH RINGWOOD: Today our victorious Under 18 side of 1986 celebrate the 30th anniversary of their great win. It will be great to catch up with lots of faces we haven’t seen for a while. Very disappointing to miss out in all three games in last Sunday’s season openers. Seniors demonstrated some tremendous passages of First Division Football, which was very inspiring. However, after the good passages came the lack-of-concentration stages that let our opponents in. We had more of the ball, but didn’t use it well enough. Exciting to see the new guys in action. Charlie Haley impressed everyone, including the East supporters. Reserves battled hard all day against a strong opposition, particularly after losing 3 of our better players early. Some good signs of improvement though, which will see us performing better than last year. Congratulations to Glenn Gordon on his 100th game, contributing 2 goals and amongst the best. Under 19s started the season with almost a full team, 18 on the field and 2 on the bench, which was a result of hard work by new Coach Ryan Cullen. Although undermanned the young team fought very hard all day and were unlucky to miss out by 20 points with only 19 men left. The team showed lots of signs of good things to come. Player Calcutta next Saturday April 23 at 7 PM. We celebrate our 1,000th EFL game on May 7 with a luncheon at Quambee. See web “Events” for more details. Go Saints !!

DIVISION 1 NORWOOD: Norwood’s 2016 campaign started one of the EFLs most forbidding venues - Vermont. Armed with a new line-up which included 5 fresh faces (Patrick Weardon, Jordan Ceppi, Jordan Clarke, Lucas ONeill and Blake Charles), we took a shot at a win at this difficult venue. The game started in typically tough tense and tight fashion, neither side able to launch any meaningful attack on goal, they grabbed 3 goals before we scored our lone major through Matt Aver. We responded to a poor first quarter with a distinct raise in work rate and despite an early free and goal to Leroy, we could not further impact the scoreboard. Not much changed after half time, both defences were on top but Vermont always looked the more likely to sneak a goal. Matt Aver and debutant Justin Clarke snagged our goals, but Vermont added 3.6 which saw us trailing by just under 30 points at ¾ time. Our last quarter was by far our best, as we kicked 5.2 to 4.1, but the horse had well and truly bolted, Vermont recording a well-deserved victory by 22 points. Good players were few, but Matt Aver, Michael Pearson and Jordan Clarke stood out and, as always, Holmer and Hilly gave their all. So a less than exhilarating start to season 2016. Let’s hope for a major statement with a big bounce back at home against newly-promoted Doncaster next week. TONIGHT: Rooms open, drinks, food & entertainment, lets enjoy having four walls & a roof.

DONCASTER: All three teams were competitive last week - especially the seniors going down by a point, but none could get the 4 points against Blackburn. Colts were right in it at 3 quartr time but Blackburn kicked away in the last to get up by 4 goals. Best – Silipo, Stathopoulos, Risvanis, Mandis, Every & Giles. Reserves didn’t get on the board until the third term, however were still in the contest due to this low scoring match, went down by over 4 goals in the end as to much was left to too late. Best – Colosimo, Myors, Jarvis Valkenburg, Learnouth & Coates. Seniors looked like we were right at home in first division at the start – except the score board kicking 1.9 before registering our second and this may have come back to haunt us in the end. The Burners came out in the third while we looked as though we were still in the change rooms. The last was entertaining with several goals at each end, however we failed by the smallest of margins in a great Rd 1 hit out. Best – Komen. Ryan, Annakis, Siaka, Hoops & Scotland. Thanks to the Blackburn guys for staying around. Today we travel to Norwood before heading home next week to host Rowville. Reminder also that next week is Pass Players & Officials Day with a focus on the 1996 Premiership Anniversary. Coterie memberships are still available as well as the community business page adverts.

DIVISION 1 ROWVILLE: Today we welcome East Ringwood, along with all our supports, members, volunteers and sponsors for our first home game of the season at Seebeck Oval for season 2016. Round One saw us head out to Knox Gardens to take on our local rivals Knox, in what were fantastic conditions for football the U19s hit the park first, unfortunately the boys didn’t get the points however showed enough to suggest with a bit more intensity and sustained effort results will come their way this season. The Development side gave the club its first win of the year with a very polished performance; it was great to see so many young talented locals on show, proving the club’s development program is defiantly heading in the right direction. The Senior side made it two wins from three starts for the day with a 79-point win, this result didn’t look likely as it was Knox who came out running and with high intensity and relentless pressure it was the home side by 16 points at the first break. After the first break our midfield took control allowing our forwards many scoring opportunities, the longer the game went on the better the boys played. Special mention must go to the entire backline for not allowing Knox to register a major after quarter time. All in all, a great start to 2016 for the club. Good luck to all sides today! We kicked off our social events with a Cocktail Night in the social rooms Saturday night, it was extremely well attended and a great night was had by all, our next event is the Comedy Night so look out for the details via our media sources. To keep updated with everything going on around the club go to our website www.rowvillefc.org.au or any of our social media sites Instagram, Facebook, Team App, Twitter and Flickr #CommitmentTrustRespect

EAST RINGWOOD: 2016 started with a bang for our club with all teams bringing home the bacon in a great Sunday of local footy at East Ringwood Reserve. Thanks to all from North Ringwood for your attendance, your support of the Presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lunch and for your significant presence at our after match. You helped form one of the biggest crowds seen here in many years. We intend to reciprocate at Quambee when we meet for a Sunday rematch in Round 11. The Colts recorded a fighting win while the Development Team played a solid 4 quarters with Jordie Williams our best. The Seniors prevailed in an arm-wrestle and it was James Belo who took home the Warren Gilbert Pewter. It was fantastic to sing our new club song, not just once, but three times for the day! Today we travel to Rowville who we know will provide a big challenge for our boys. April 23 will be incredibly busy when the Roo Girls host their first Ladies Luncheon (bookings essential via Bec (0413 613 220) or Julie (0412 745 446). We honour the memory of our Anzacs by wearing specially designed jumpers which will be auctioned after the game. Our PLAYER Auction will also be run on that night so you will need to be there. New Club Merchandise is proving popular and we continue to process Memberships which demonstrate your total support of the Roos. Forms for both of these important areas can be downloaded from the website. Club News is available on our website (erfc.com.au) and on our facebook page together with twitter. Go Roos!

DIVISION 2 BAYSWATER: A great start to our season with the trip to Croydon where we started well to lead at quarter time by 22 points. The boys were teaming well but scoring chances were hard to come by and we only extended the lead marginally to 24 points at the main break. Maccas game plan started to come in to effect and great team work and quick ball movement enabled Bryce Galvin and Wayne McInerney scoring opportunities. A seven goal lead was taken into the last term when the flood gates really opened and we were able to finish off with a seven goal to 3 points quarter. An eighty two point result was more than pleasing to the large crowd of our supporters attending. Final scores 18-8-110 to Croydon 3-10-28 with 5 goals to Bryce Galvin, 4 to Wayne McInerney and two each to Reeves and Scott McInerney. Best were Jesse Moore in his first game for the club, Sean Leach, Mitch & Bryce Galvin. The reserves werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so lucky. Trailing all day but showed spirit to come back from a 25 point half time deficit to hit the front with 5 minutes to go but a late mark and goal to Croydon saw us go down by 4 points. Smudge was in the best with 3 goals and Thommo was outstanding all day with help from Trent Van Vugt, Zac Dwyer and Metin Musa. Presidents Lunch today with all our sponsors and supporters. Contact Mark Rooney (0448 555 006) or Mark Schroeder (0412 543 134) for details. A huge crowd is hoped for today against our bogey team, Doncaster East so get down to support the boys. Go Baysy.

DIVISION 2 EAST BURWOOD: The Rams travelled to Lilydale last week to play the Falcons, who were back in Division 2 for season 2016. The Reserves were competitive, and unlike last year were able to put a decent score on the board. However the Falcons had a couple of taller and bigger players that were able to control the game better than our younger playing group, and in the end they were able to defeat the Rams quite comfortably. Better players for the Rams were Glynn Ford, Luke Brown and Yanni Griffith. The main game was a different storey altogether. Both sides were evenly matched and scored freely on a ground that really does not suit the East Burwood style of play. Playing at Lilydale Reserve, ids much akin to playing “corridor football” and the home team used those conditions very effectively. That said, the lead changed several times and there was only a single point in it at the main break. This tempo continued into the third term, however the Rams were a little inconsistent in their effort and allowed the Falcons to gain the ascendancy. This trend continued into the final term, and in the end the Falcons ran out comfortable winners. Better players for the Rams on the day were Jayden Duman with six goals, Nick Prelorenzo and Jordy Damatopoulos. This week will be our first home game for the season where we face Mulgrave so please come along and support our club. The Rams would like to acknowledge our sponsors for season 2016: - Elite Construction & Building Maintenance - East Burwood Travel & Cruise - Picollinos Pizza Restaurant Forthcoming social functions are the Ladies’ Day Luncheon on 7th May, and the $5,000 draw on the 14th of May, both functions will be held at the clubrooms. There is also a golf day scheduled for Saturday 21st May, the weekend the Rams have a bye. Please feel free to contact any of the committee regarding more details for these functions.

MULGRAVE: This week we travel to East Burwood, looking for improved results from both Reserves and Seniors. The Under 19s have a bye. Last week the Under 19s started the day on a positive note, and recorded a strong win, best were James Verde, Jordan Cochrane and Jordan Falloon. Christian Martino slotted home three goals. The Reserves fought out a tough game against very experienced opposition, and went down by only seven points, best were Nathan Prior, Todd Kenny and Matt Hesketh. The Seniors controlled the play across the first three quarters but failed to capitalise on opportunity, and Wantirna South pulled away in the last quarter. On Friday night the two netball teams opened their seasons with two grading games each, things are looking very positive for both teams, watch our facebook page for where the girls are playing this week, and come along and support them.

CROYDON: This week we travel to play newly promoted Mitcham Football Club and look forward to seeing a resurgent senior team. Welcome to our new ground sponsor Swinburne TAFE (Croydon Campus). Croydon Oval will now be called Swinburne Oval. Today Croydon Football Club reaches a big milestone playing their 1000th game. Well done to the Club. Celebrations will be held during our next home game against Lilydale in round 4 so everyone come along and have a good time and celebrate on that day. Also we will have our player auction after that game. Last week thanks to a goal with five seconds to go by Riley Britton the seconds won by four points in a thriller, 9-9 to 8-11. Dale Bull, Ryan Wilson and Ben Straughair were named best players. The under 19’s team had a 94 point win over last year’s premiers Mooroolbark 19-14 to 5-4. Thompson and Sparkes each kicked six goals, the best being Thompson, Sparkes, Britton and A. Ficorilli. Also don’t forget to get your memberships from David Dent or Darrell Grant. GO BLUES!!!

DIVISION 2 MOOROOLBARK: What a great start to the season for the Mustangs Reserves and Senior sides, both recording resounding victories against the much more fancied Doncaster East boys on their home turf. The day started with the Colts taking on Croydon at Croydon and unfortunately went down by a fair margin. Best were Delahoy, Jackson, Thompson, Daniell, Dolan & Craig. At Zerbes Reserve the Ressies got the jump on Donny East in the first term and never looked back, the final margin being 59 points. Sam Downie snagged 3 goals while Grant Morris got the nod for BOG. Others to show out were Taylor, McCrimmon, Cook, Hands & Dymond. After Donny East kicked the first 3 goals of the senior game things didn’t look too good but from that moment on the Mustangs completely dominated the game and if they had kicked straighter the 64-point margin would have been far greater. Our boys applied relentless pressure and didn’t allow the opposition an easy possession all game. Jai Jordan top scored with 4 goals while the skipper, Michael Smith, earned BOG (and took one of the most spectacular you’ll ever see in local footy). Others in the best were Sutherland, Hassan, Jordan, Neumann & Treeby. Today we host local rivals Lilydale who have returned to 2nd Division so it should be a great contest. Thanks to everyone who bought players in the Player Auction last week. Tonight we have music at the Stable. GO MUSTANGS !!!

WAVERLEY BLUES: A mixed day at Mount Waverley Reserve last week with sunshine greeting a big crowd for round one and Mates Day. Food and beverages were consumed at reasonable prices and the people were happy. Unfortunately, the results on the field were not so conducive to merriment and cheer as Mitcham took away three wins. The Under 19s fell behind but rallied and had a couple of chances to hit the lead mid-way through the last quarter. Mitcham kicked the last few goals to show a final margin perhaps bigger than would seem just. In the best were Twycross, Ewart, Young and Hale. The reserves had an even hit out but fell behind in the second quarter only rarely looked like pegging it back. Brown, Macaulay and Foley were reliable as ever. The Mitcham seniors didn’t read our script and came out firing, putting on 8 goals to one in the first quarter and never looking back. The Playsteds and new skipper Edwards were standouts on a day where we were beaten in all areas. The boys have worked hard all pre-season and will be keen to bounce back this week at Wantirna South. Tonight after the match we’re having our first function back at the club-rooms, Blues At The Races from 7pm. Don’t let me have all the fun, get amongst it!

EASTERN RANGES The Eastern Ranges have improved to 2-0 to start the 2016 TAC Cup season with a dominant performance over the Western Jets in Round 2 action at IKON Park. The Ranges ran out 71 point victors, with captain Dylan Clarke amassing 32 disposals – 22 of which were contested. Jake McCormack starred up forward, kicking 4 goals to go along with his 21 possessions. The game was not all Eastern’s way early on, with the side trailing by 7 points at the first break through inaccurate kicking. An even game was played out across the first half with the Ranges finding their kicking radar to lead by 6 points at the main break. The second half was a different story. The Ranges piled on 7 goals to 1 in the third quarter to break the game open and take it away from the Jets. For the second week in a row, the Ranges closed down their opposition’s uncontested game to gain the ascendancy. The final quarter was much of the same, with the Ranges booting 5 goals to kick a combined 12 goals after half-time. The win pushes the side up to 2nd on the TAC Cup ladder, and they remain one of only three sides that are undefeated after 2 rounds of the season.

COMPLETE INJURY CARE The EFL are pleased to announce we have created a program with five leading medical providers to establish a player injury care program unrivalled in community sport.

from internationally trained and highly regarded surgeons.

The program is EFL Complete Injury Care, and through Lifecare, Vermont Urgent Care, Capital Radiology, Sports Med Biologic and Orthopaedic Specialists Melbourne, we are creating a level of expert care for EFL players usually reserved for those at the elite level.

Concussion is, understandably, an important topic for our industry. It’s an area research has shown most local GP’s aren’t comfortable dealing with, and that as an industry we need to be cognisant of providing the best level of care possible. Through this program and the fast access to the level of care available at Sports Med Biologic this is possible.

Lifecare, are a leading provider of physiotherapy and sports medicine services who have had a relationship with the EFL for in excess of 25 years. Vermont Urgent Care is a walk in doctor’s surgery open on Saturday and Sunday afternoons to provide immediate care to injured players without waiting for hours at the public hospital or paying significant money before you walk in the door at a private hospital, with X-Ray available. Capital Radiology provide the full range of radiology services such as X-ray, CT scans and MRI, with quality care and fast communication with patients and other medical professionals. Sports Med Biologic are a sports medical clinic based in Box Hill of which the doctors have experience at the elite level of sport, mostly with AFL clubs, and will provide expert concussion care, both pre-screening and post injury management. And Orthopaedic Specialists Melbourne will help provide quick access to expert orthopaedic services

Vermont Urgent Care - Walk in Doctors Clinic. No appointment needed. 5 Boronia Road, Vermont http://vermonturgentcare.com.au/ Ph: 9874 3344

The program helps address two key concerns.

The second is when a player is hurt and needs immediate attention, or looks to have seriously injured themselves. With this program, the player can be assessed on the weekend at Vermont Urgent Care, be in getting scans on Monday at Capital Radiology, if they need to consult with an orthopaedic surgeon it will be done in a couple of days though OSM, and if surgery is required they could be on the operating table by the end of the week. Then post-surgery they can get expert rehabilitation though Lifecare to help get back on the ground ASAP. It’s a level of care only seen at the elite level but now available to community footballers. Keep your eye on the EFL website (efl.org.au) for more information on the program or contact the provider directly via the details below.

Jets on the Rise By Daniel Batten – EFL Media On the back of a disappointing 2015 campaign, finishing in eighth position in Division 3, a reinvigorated Heathmont line-up began season 2016 in emphatic fashion. Donning their new-look attire for the first time, the Jets thumped South Belgrave away from home to the tune of 78 points. Heathmont had finished last season two positions below South Belgrave, but now sit in second place on the ladder after their impressive Round 1 showing. New senior coach Joel Cordwell and a host of pickups from Norwood – David Knowles, Brent English, Alan Pettigrew and Jack Cornwall – headlined their preseason news and if their start to the year is anything to go by, the Jets appear to be on the rise. Of the four recruits, Knowles and Pettigrew were named in the best players and English added two goals in their first appearances for the club.

echoed his brother’s sentiments, commending the teams increased professionalism and unity. “We had a lot more numbers on the track during preseason this year than we did in 2015. The group has been really good towards us younger boys as well.” Alongside Lachie Sverns in the best were Ryan Young and Christopher Colombo, both turning 20 this season - the latter adding four majors. Tom North, 17, also featured in the blue and gold on the weekend. “With age comes experience and all the younger guys have been able to have full pre-seasons. Colombo was there every night… and it really showed on the weekend with his fitness in the second half,” the Heathmont skipper said.

“They have really brought everyone together, it’s a really positive atmosphere [at training].”

This is not forgetting proven youngster Nathan Mullenger McHugh missing on the weekend due to injury, who remarkably placed third in Heathmont’s Best and Fairest in his debut senior year. Unfortunately for the Jets, Mullenger-McHugh will most likely be spending his time in the TAC Cup playing for representative side Eastern Ranges when he returns.

Likewise, Cordwell, who left his post as senior assistant coach of Norwood at seasons end, has had a positive impact on the group as coach, offering a greater sense of clarity according to Sverns.

Season 2016 and beyond looks bright for the Jets with the timely addition of its Norwood recruits and its new senior coach, along with its young talent coming through.

“He has brought an elite professionalism to the group with his knowledge of the game. A lot more handouts, clear goals and the new structures he has put in place have definitely helped.”

The Jets have the opportunity to start the season 2-0, travelling to face Warrandyte in their next matchup.

Heathmont captain Dylan Sverns has been particularly impressed with their off field contributions as well

Heathmont’s young talent coming through is also something to get excited about. Dylan’s younger brother, Lachie, was named best on ground on the weekend for his role down back on Cody Morris. The 18-year-old is entering his second year in the senior side and

DIVISION 3 BORONIA: Our new match day pants and shorts had arrived during the week and were very popular on Round 1. The Hawks started the day with an Under 19 grand final replay with our young fellas managing to hang on for a 1 point victory. The reserves played a great brand of footy and in the end ran out of time and went down by a couple of goals. The senior team played a different brand of football that our supporters are used to seeing and it showed on the score board. The lead changed on numerous occasions during the game and inaccuracy in front of goals probably cost us a win. To our teams bounce back this week as we return home to Tormore for the first game of the season. Remember President lunch is on this Saturday so if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t got a table give Woody a call. Player Auction on at the rooms also this Saturday Night. All get down to Tormore for a great night. Please see the Web Site for all upcoming social events and support the club. Go Hawka.

SILVAN: Last week was a great day up at the Cattery, as the Cats got our season off to the best possible start, with a hard-fought win over Ringwood, who played finals last season. In front of a number of life members in attendance and with six new faces on board, coach Chris Murphy wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have known quite what to expect. However, the effort applied by the side all over the park would have given him high hopes for a very competitive season ahead. The lead changed at every quarter break, with Ringwood holding a slender one point lead at three quarter time. A five goals to three last quarter saw the Cats home by 8 points as it seemed to take an eternity for the final siren to sound!

Things didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go quite so well for the Ressies, under new coach Adrian Cannata, outclassed by a very strong Redbacks outfit. As numbers improve in the coming weeks, we would hope and expect the performances from the Twos to lift accordingly. They always put up a fight and with a number of under 19s from last year slipping into the side, it will take a little while to click into gear. This week we travel down to Boronia, who will be keen to atone for a narrow loss to Park Orchards. The big Tormore Road oval will be another big challenge for the Cats, who will be up for the scrap.

DIVISION 3 RINGWOOD: Last week we travelled to Silvan and the Reserves kick started their season with a big victory by over 25 goals. They came out firing from the first bounce and by half time had piled on 18 goals whilst keeping their opposition goal less. They continued to display good football in the second half but were made to work harder by Silvan who applied greater pressure however in a very even team performance we ran out comfortable winners. The Seniors were locked in a close and tight fought battle all day with little separating the sides. We struggled to adapt to the smaller ground conditions and were never allowed to get our game going and in a see sawing battle it was Silvan who had their nose in front at the final siren. It was a disappointing loss and one the boys are keen to atone for this week. Redback memberships are now available so please show your true support to the club and sign up as member or player sponsor and for further details see Don Burns. Next week Saturday April 23 we are holding our first social function for the year at the clubrooms and we hope to see a big crowd in attendance to enjoy the social side of football. Today we host Templestowe in our first home game for the season and expect to see a big crowd in attendance to support us!

TEMPLESTOWE: Travelling this Saturday to Jubilee Park to play the Ringwood Redbacks after experiencing a mammoth start to the season against The Basin Bears last weekend. A TFC Forum Lunch on the Friday kicked off proceedings with Cam Mooney and Peter Helliar entertaining the guests so thank you to them and a big thank you to the Forum for their contribution. The game featured Brian Lake and a late inclusion from the Northern Bullants – Jack Cripps, thank you both for your involvement. The crowd at Porter St had a great day’s entertainment with the U19’s showing spirit but with injuries could not cement a win. The Reserves and Seniors posted good percentage wins against a determined Basin Bears opposition. In the One’s, two new recruits, the “Kid” Talevski kicked 6 goals and BOG Daniel Pearce. Coming up is another special day Round 3 when The Dockers take on Chirnside Park in the Monday ANZAC Day commemorative clash at Porter St, gate proceeds supporting our community partner – the Templestowe RSL. See Nicole Muleta for tickets to our Ladies “Let’s Hear it for The Boys” Night on Friday 6th May at 7.30pm, always a great night to catch up with friends and enjoy some entertainment. The Dockers are committed to supporting our Community through Doncare and will be continuing to fund raise during the season. Thanks to our major sponsors PSC Insurers, The Co Accountants, Credo Financial and Funky Foods. Time to Strike 2016 – CQR.

DIVISION 3 SOUTH BELGRAVE: We were dealt a football lesson last weekend by a far sharper team from the Heathmont FC. They looked the better side all day and had certainly come to play..it started with the Under 19s who ran hard into space and worked for each other, our Reserves were a little better but were eventually overrun by a fitter team, hopefully the work on the training track will hold us in good stead against our opponents from the Scoresby FC today. You will notice that we look different as we will be wearing our “RED” jumper to avoid a clash with the black and white jumper that our opponents wear. A special mention to all that helped last week in the running of our first home game, Ian &Marg on the BBQ, Jo,Sue,Sally,Carmen and the team in the canteen, Rik,Leanne,Leon with the Old Boy’s half time gathering and The 2 Pete’s in Cormack & Moody (Pete Repeat) in the bar along with Casey.. The players that helped on the gate and our new gate person in Jess who did a fantastic job in her 1st week.I personally know how important the roles that you undertake are to our club, in saying that we would gladly accept any offers of help on game day. See myself or indeed any committee member and we will find you something to do. Good luck to all today and don’t forget to stay back after the game for a drink and a chat in the social rooms. A reminder that we are playing Upper Gully on Anzac Day away in a special jumper supplied by the RSL. A very important day in our history. #GOSOUTH

DIVISION 3 THE BASIN: Mixed results last week for season opener. The Vets opened the season on Friday night defeating Bayswater by 30 points. Kicking 12 goals straight with Noons 6 majors. Then Saturday versing Templestowe started with a Win by our under 19’s (24 points). 2 goals each to Sawyers and Goodman. Unfortunately, that’s where it stopped. Reserves lost by 69 points and seniors by 89. Goal kicking practice will certainly be the objective at training. Today we welcome Chirnside Park to The Bear Cave for our first home game for this season with the bears hopefully chalking in 3 wins. Also congratulations to our club leadership group. The team will once again be led by the bull Trevor Mills and his vicecaptain Andrew Battye. We also have a new look leadership group with Aaron Findlay and Max Kruger joining Luke Watson and Michael Cardamone. Anthony Duke will be taking on the reserves captain’s role this season as he pushes the boys to add another trophy to the cabinet.

PARK ORCHARDS: The Park Orchards Sharks welcomed the Boronia Hawks to the Shark Tank to kick off the opening round. Three tight battles, played in great spirit, unfolded during the course of the day; with our “Unders” going down by a point and both senior sides coming away with 2-3 goal victories.

The senior match was preceded by our annual President’s lunch with speeches from our star new recruit, the senior club captain, President & VP; before we heard from our special guest Douggie Hawkins…. the Hawk was very entertaining (and serious at times; believe it or not!) and looks great for a 65yo! We look forward to the challenge of the away game against Upper FTG who hit the ground running last week, with three impressive wins. Go Sharks!

HEATHMONT: A new look Heathmont, in more ways than one, ventured up to South Belgrave and what a great start to the season! Three good wins to the club. Congratulations to the coaches and players on their performances. A solid last quarter by the Under 19’s saw them take the points, and a come from behind effort in the last quarter saw the Development squad make it two wins. It was the new look senior team turn next and a fast and furious 6 goal first quarter set the scene for the rest of the match. Goals were seemingly coming from everywhere and there were some great passages of play to compliment them with the Seniors running out with a 13 goal win. But it is only Round 1 so now to refocus and concentrate on this week’s game against Warrandyte. Good Luck! The Netballers also started their season on Friday with a few grading games and their confirmed fixture will be out soon. There is plenty happening around the club too - back to the club TONIGHT for the Frat Party. NEXT WEEK WE PLAY OUR 1000th club game and first home game against The Basin where we will be wearing special ANZAC jumpers which will be auctioned off that night. We have our Ladies Lunch coming up on May 7, please see Anne Parker to book a place and will be incorporating a fund raiser for Cystic Fibrosis. Have you jumped on board yet?

DIVISION 4 COLDSTREAM: Massive week for the club, basically turned upside down then right side up in 7 days! Very proud of all past, current and new players to commit in pulling the Big V on in 2016, noting having 17 only players Thursday week ago. Also a big thank you to the sponsors, members, officials and coaches again for the support to the club we had a magnificent crowd round 1 lets back it up for round 2. Both reserves and firsts came away with the chocolates which was very pleasing, just as pleasing was the efforts of Nunawading in making our club welcome and ensuring to put up a game on the day noting their own issues. It is for all Clubs to understand and respect each other for l without doubt see tougher times coming in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game, with demands for clubs to be competitive which generally leads to financial exposures or loss of players. Fine for the larger clubs with wealthy amounts of juniors ensuring depth in senior clubs, as for others that generally are not with such great access geography it is very challenging and will not change anytime soon. Next is Surrey Park which we welcome to our park, win loss or draw wear your colours with pride cougars as we are one! Congratulations to Lachie Craig captain Aaron Sedgman and Darcy Carrigan Vice captains. IPOD SHUFFLE TONIGHT $10 entry $20 with a song prize money to be won. Come down and support the functions. See Louise or Kelly. Also still require a team manager for the reserves. See Kelly for details. Your club Your choice. Go Cougars

SURREY PARK: What a start to the season for Surrey. Up against Forest Hill, the 19’s set the tone early with a great win – working their way into the game, it was pleasing to see James Box chosen as best in his first game back at Surrey in a few years – he receives the Surrey Barbers voucher. The Reserves started brightly enough but couldn’t maintain the pace through the entire match. Well done to Bailey Jones for his performance and receives the Aqualink Café Voucher. Finally it was the game we were all looking forward to; we had a cracking day and the community was out in force supporting the group as they took on one of the flag fancies. We were thrilled to see such an even performance from all over the ground and the game remained tight right to the end. Credit goes to our boys for sticking at it and coming home with an outstanding victory. Seven goals to ‘Zoop’ was a highlight, as was great games from Zach Tempany, Ryan Kennedy and Kane Henden. Whilst it is great to get a first up victory, Scott was quick to point out that there are 17 rounds to go and this is just the first step. This week we take on Coldstream in a game that will again test us and our on field progress. A call out to Surrey Hills, East Camberwell and Surrey Park past players, our past players reunion day is set for 28 May so mark it in your calendar. Go Surrey!

EASTERN LIONS: With the under 19s having a bye there was only 2 games at home against Glen Waverly last weekend. The reserves looked in control at times with M.Young, B.Podger and L.Rankin forming a solid team up forward but the Lions didn’t make the most of their scoring shots whereas Glen Waverly were very accurate in front of goal. In the end that was the different between the teams with Hawks holding onto a 1 point win. The seniors started on the back foot with Glen Waverly running hard and putting the Lions under pressure at every contest. The Hawks held a handy brake at the end of each qrt with the final scores Eastern Lions 10.14.74 Glen Waverly 13.12.90, best players for the Lions C.Banks, S.Mercer and J.Murphy.

FOREST HILL: Season 2016 kicked off with us away to Surrey Park in perfect conditions for football. Surrey have been improving over the last few years and their rebuild has been paying dividends. The seniors and the Feagles got off to losing starts with our reserves the only side to record a win. Obviously it is only the first game of a long season, we have a few new recruits and are confident that all teams will get better as the season rolls on.

This week sees us pay host to our near neighbours Nunawading. As our first home game we want to send a signal to the competition that a visit to Fraser Place is to be feared. We are aiming to get on the winners list and give our supporters a glimpse of the type of exciting footy we can play. Hopefully we can have good weather, a good crowd and good footy. The social side of the club is also picking up pace. Our $5k draw is being held on May 14. See a committee member to arrange your ticket. See Carmel to organise your 2016 memberships and support your club. Note that our Round 3 match away at Ferntree Gully will be played on Anzac Day. Make sure to put that in your diary. Sponsor of the week is Finer Timber Doors. See Steve Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Moore for all your kitchen cabinet and bench top needs. Great to have FTD back on board for another year. Go Zebras.

NUNAWADING: To use the cliché “A week is a long time in football” is a vast understatement this week, where, in the last few days, there has been a couple of major events in the club. President Wayne Devene, after copping broken ribs in Saturday’s reserves game, was suddenly called into hospital to have kidney transplant surgery performed on Tuesday. The whole club and our supporters have sent their well wishes to Wayne and his wife Sarah and we are all hoping for a speedy recovery for him. After a disappointing start last week, the Lions are on the road for two weeks with upcoming games against Forest Hill and then long-time rivals Whitehorse Pioneers on Anzac Day. The clash with the Pioneers has large significance as a historical rivalry round for the two clubs. Once again the two will play for the Springfield Cup, which the Lions are currently the holders of. The two clubs although competing on field, are working together off the field to ensure the day is financially successful for both and there will be more information in the Leader soon. With the Lions desperate to have a win coach Thornton is working closely with the new Lions to raise awareness of the historical value of the clash, but not losing sight of the Anzac spirit. With the game being on Monday it will be the only game in the EFL and should be a rippa. Please get down and help support both clubs. Go Lions!

GLEN WAVERLEY HAWKS senior Coach: Ryan Flack res Coach: Brad Matthews Ground: Central Reserve, Springvale Road, Glen Waverley. (Melways 71 B5) Ph: 9887 9696 Colours: Blue jumper with gold and white side panels and gold hawk emblem, blue shorts.

The first home game of the season will see a Glen Waverley reserves side keen to make it two from two after a thrilling one-point win in Round 1. A late goal from senior’s side regular Curt Meachen was enough to clinch the four points in what was a see-sawing contest with the Eastern Lions last Saturday. In the Seniors, coach Ryan Flack will be looking for further improvement if his side is to defeat a Ferntree Gully team many pundits have selected as early premiership fancies. New recruits Walsh, Murray, Boothman and Caldwell looked in Round 1 to bring plenty to the table in 2016 for Glen Waverley and were all vital cogs in The Hawks wire-to-wire 16-point win over the Lions. The Hawks, as always are excited to return to the wide expanses of Waverley Toyota Oval where they hope their mixture of hard contested footy and outside leg speed is enough to keep them undefeated heading into round 3. All in all the scene is set for a magnificent day of local footy.

FERNTREE GULLY EAGLES: Round 1 - our season kicked off with a BANG against Kilsyth. It all started off with our Under 19’s having an impressive 67-point win – in what was a great team effort. Unfortunately, the Reserves match had to be called off midway through the third quarter due to an accidental knock out, by all accounts the Kilsyth player was up and about, after attending hospital he should be back in the next couple of weeks – our club wishes him all the best. Luckily for our Reserves side we had our noses in front by 8 points and were awarded the game. Then our Seniors got off to a flyer but were pegged back in the third quarter but managed to steady and got away with a 25-point victory – Matthew Petracca was best of the goal kickers with 3 goals, whilst Ben Lockhart, Lachlan Kennedy and Michael Russo chipped in with 2 goals each. Our President’s Luncheon was held on Saturday, which by all accounts was great success – a big thanks goes out to all that helped organise the event and all our volunteers on match day, your help is always appreciated. This week our Under 19’s take on Surrey Park at home, whilst our Reserves and Seniors travel to our bogie ground to take on Glen Waverley Hawks in what should be 3 challenging matches.

JUNIOR CORNER By EFL Media

THE BENDIGO BANK LIGHTNING PREMIERSHIP IS BACK! Over the next TWO weekends the leagues brightest young stars will converge on Pinks Reserve in Kilsyth for the annual Bendigo Bank Lightning Premiership. In their only taste of competitive football for the season or Under 10’s will kick of next weekend (April 24) with the Under 9’s to follow a week later at the same venue. More than 1500 children from over 70 teams will participate in a day that is coined by many as ‘organised chaos’. The purpose of the day is to give our youngest talent the chance to play for a trophy and build camaraderie not only with their teammates but with opposition clubs as well. The two grounds at Pinks Reserve will be split into four with more than 140 games to be played across the day. Parents, Grand Parents, friends and extended family all make the trek for what is a spectacular day. On both days each club is designated a ‘change rooms’ (More or less are marquee) that they use a home base for the day – clubs set up Barbeques and play games in between their matches to keep the kids entertained. Hawthorn Football Club will once again be in attendance once again supporting the league. The EFL is a grass roots partner of the Hawks and is proud to be associated with such a successful organisation. At the end of the day, Premiers trophies will be handed out to the winner/s in each group that is, those who have gone through their four matches undefeated. A huge crowd is expected on both days (April 24 and May 1) it is advised that families attempt to carpool where possible. Ensure you have packed for the conditions as Melbourne weather can throw a number of various scenarios over the course of the day.

We salute our sponsors! Sponsorship plays a vital role in sport at all levels and without it the league would not be as successful as it is today. The income generated from sponsorship reduces the financial burden on competing clubs and keeps the cost of football in the EFL within reach of all supporters.
