The Riddell District Football Netball League (RDFNL) is an Australian rules football and netball league in Victoria, Australia. The RDFNL covers towns in the Macedon Ranges and an area from Melton and Rockbank in the south to Kyneton and Lancefield in the north.
The league also runs junior competitions from Under 10 to Under 18 age groups.
The Riddell District Football Association was formed in May, 1912 from the following clubs - Gisborne, Riddell and Sunbury clubs.[1] Riddell FC won the 1912 premiership and the Raftis Trophy.[2]
In September, 1925, the Riddell DFA hosted the St. Kilda Reserves side in a match at Riddell, with St. Kilda: 15.13 - 103 defeating Riddell DFA: 5.3 - 33[3] Romsey played off in nine grand finals in ten years in the 1920's, winning seven premierships, while Lancefield also played off in nine grand finals in ten years in the 1920's and into the early 1930's, but won only three of their nine grand finals.
This decade saw Hesket club go into recess and the introduction of new clubs Craigieburn, Melton and Melton South. In 1975 the league went two divisional, With eight teams in First Division and six clubs in Second Division. Numbers were boosted by the return of Trentham and Hesket clubs. 1977 saw Broadford and a second team from Sunbury join the league. Diggers Rest joined in 1978.
1985 saw the league return to one division with twelve clubs. In 1987 the league went two divisional again as clubs were admitted from the Panton Hill Football League and North Fawkner from the disbanded YCW league the league had nineteen clubs.
By the mid-1990s some clubs were struggling to compete and clubs went into recess.
The strongest clubs, Darley, Melton, Melton South & Sunbury left for the Ballarat Football League after 1996 season. This reduced the league to one division again. North Fawkner went into recess after 1998 after the club struggled for years to secure sufficient numbers to field 2 teams, which resulted in many large defeats many over 30 goals.
