YJFL takes to Marvel for pre Round 1 clash


The YJFL is honoured to be invited to participate in an Under 16 Boys representative match against the South Metro Junior Football League in a curtain raiser to the Collingwood vs St Kilda clash at Marvel Stadium on Friday evening.

Starting at 5.45pm the game is a great way for our players and selected umpires to experience a once in a life time opportunity.

All 22 selected players come from the 2021 Yarra Magpies Academy squad including coach Vinnie Datolli who lead the boys last year.

We also congratulate the four umpires chosen to officiate Friday’s game. 2021 Golden Whistle Award winner Andrew Chau will take the filed and represent the YJFL as one of the filed umpires.
