[email protected] Williamstown Football Club is thrilled to be one of three VFL Clubs invited to participate in this competition in 2011. The 16 clubs competing comprise 3 from the VFL - North Ballarat, Northern Bullants and Williamstown, 3 from the WAFL - Swan Districts, Claremont and East Perth, 3 from the SANFL - Central Districts, Norwood and Woodville West Torrens, 2 from QLD - Morningside and Labrador, Tasmanian Premiers Clarence, Sydney Premiers East Coast Eagles, Canberra Premiers Ainslie, Northern Territory Thunder and Greater Western Sydney. The competition will be a knock out format with all games played as a curtain raiser to AFL games and the games will be broadcast live on Foxtel throughout Australia. Our first game will be played on Saturday 9th April when we travel to Subiaco Oval to play the WAFL Premiers Swan Districts before the West Coast Eagles vs Sydney Swans game. If we are successful in Round 1 our quarter final game will be on June 4 / 5 and more than likely be against powerhouse SANFL Premiers Central Districts who are opposed to Ainslie in Round 1.
