Grand Final appearances
Over the club’s 100+ year affiliation with the Diamond Valley Football Association/League (DVFL) and the now Northern Football Netball League (NFNL), the Greensborough Football club has been involved in many Grand Finals.
Since the start of the official DVFL/NFNL competition in 1922 a Grand Final has been played every year, except during 1941-1945 where it went in to recess due to WWII. In 1981, the DVFL introduced a 2nd Division with promotion/relegation determining the lineup of the clubs from year to year. In 2007 the DVFL was reformed as the NFL/NFNL and in 2008 it created a third division for the Men’s competition.
The Senior Women’s competition was created and in 2017, with Greensborough fielding their 1st side in 2018 in Division 3.
The table below lists all the Grand Finals that both our Senior Men’s and Senior Women’s teams have been involved in and the result of that Grand Final.
