The push into Geelong continues...

Two months ago I wrote about Dan Rule setting up a VFDA-backed presence in Geelong. So how did it go?

From an email sent to the vic-ultimate list by the man himself...

"Step forward two months and we have the makings of something great. Pickup in Geelong has been running weekly on Tuesday afternoons with numbers regularly around 20 (mostly juniors) and often more. We have now sourced a venue with lights and fantastic fields to host a league on a Tuesday night from 7pm. The league will commence on Tuesday 13th May."

Fantastic news. BUUF will have a team in this league, competing against 3 local teams. We've managed to recruit players who previously thought Albert Park was too big a commitment. I will be sure to keep you posted on how the league goes.
