VAFA announce that the home and away season is over, BUT keep the door open for a Finals Series, pending government restrictions and advice thereof.
The updates from VAFA are as follows:
"In light of the Victorian State Government announcement that Metropolitan Melbourne will extend the current lockdown until 11.59pm on Thursday 2 September, the home and away season for all VAFA competitions has concluded.
The VAFA Board will meet again on Monday 30 August to review its position on returning to play and remain totally committed to completing the 2021 VAFA finals series for all sections under the final four (4), three (3) week model for all sections.
The VAFA Board will consider scheduling finals on Friday 24 September to Sunday 26 September if required to complete the 2021 VAFA finals series.
A decision on promotion and relegation will be postponed until the conclusion of the 2021 VAFA finals series. We understand this decision may provide uncertainty to clubs, however it will allow the VAFA Administration and Board time to consider the Women’s competition and Men’s Divisional competition structures for 2022 which both have significant influence on promotion and relegation."
In regards to Juniors, the BFC Management Committee is waiting on a statement from the SMJFL and will advise as soon as it comes to hand.
In the meantime, the BFC can be proud of the achievements of its Senior section this season and the fact the club fielded 7 Senior teams for the first time in its history.
If we get the chance to play finals and here's hoping we can, we believe there might be a premiership or two to celebrate and cast aside these last two difficult years.
