## History

[edit]

The Euroa District Football Association was formed in May, 1903[1] from the following clubs - Euroa, Gooram, Miepoll, Rigg's Creek, Shean's Creek and Violet Town.[2]

In 1894, there was a Euroa Football Association for one season only, with Euroa FC finishing on top of the ladder.[3]

The Euroa Royals FC was formed in 1905 and wore the red and white colours[4] and were known as the Tigers.

In the interest of football in Euroa in 1909, the Euroa Magpies FC and Euroa FC merged to form one club and entered the North East Football Association. The Euroa Wednesdays FC entered a team in the Euroa (Wednesday) Football Association.[5]

In April 1920, clubs from the existing Euroa DFA met and formed the North East District Football Association.[6]

In 1921, club colours were - Baddaginnie: green and white; Benalla Rovers: blue and white; Glenrowan: red, white and blue; Strathbogie: royal blue and black; Violet Town: maroon and gold; Euroa Imperials: black and white; Shean's Creek: green and gold.[7][8]

In 1922, Benalla Rovers moved to the Yarrawonga FA, Longwood went into recess, which left only the Baddaginnie, Euroa Imperials and Violet Town teams, thus the North East FA went into recess.[9]

In 1923, the North East FA was reformed from the following clubs - Baddaginnie, Euroa Imperials, Gooram, Longwood, Strathbogie and Violet Town.[10]

In May 1934, Euroa FC and the Euroa Imperials FC merged to form Euroa United FC and entered one team in the Waranga North Eastern Football Association[11][12] and the Euroa DFA changed its name to the Euroa Junior Football Association in May 1934.[13] Euroa Seconds could not enter a team in the Euroa DFA in 1934, due to local North East rules.[14]

In 1946, Strathbogie's Malcom Armstrong, won the Euroa DFL best and fairest award.[15]

The Euroa DFA folded after the 1949 season and Euroa Seconds, Longwood and Strathbogie joined the re-established Hume Highway Football Association in 1950, which began back in 1931,[16] but was in recess between 1947 and 1949.

In 1939, Seymour's Len Patford won the Hume Highway Football League's best and fairest award.[17]

Robert Fox, from the Yarck Football Club won the 1952 Hume Highway Football League's best and fairest award. [18]

In 1953, Pat Russell from the Yarck Football Club, won the Hume Highway Football League best and fairest award, the L D Roberstson Trophy, donated bt the league secretary.[19]

In 1954, Ron Watkins, from Strathbogie, won the very last Hume Highway Football League best and fairest award before the league folded.[20]
