The Bellarine Football Netball League will not proceed for the 2020 season.
The AFL Barwon Commission today announced the decision to cancel the Geelong Football Netball League (GFNL) and Bellarine Football Netball League (BFNL) senior football and netball home and away premiership seasons for 2020.
The decision includes the GFNL and BFNL senior football home and away seasons (seniors and reserves) as well as all senior netball home and away seasons (all senior grades).
Clubs were fully supportive of a united approach to the outcome of the 2020 senior football and netball premiership seasons, AFL Barwon said.
“Following extensive consultation, 79% of senior clubs across all senior competitions (GFNL, BFNL, CDFNL, GDFNL) in our region told us they wouldn’t support a premiership season or were accepting of a final Commission decision,” AFL Barwon Regional General Manager Will McGregor said.
“The overwhelming majority of GFNL and BFNL clubs wanted a definitive decision on the 2020 season by June 9.”
