The Wimmera Football League is a major Australian rules country league based in Western Victoria, with clubs located in towns in the Wimmera region: the regional centres along the Western Highway from Ararat to Nhill as well as Minyip-Murtoa and Warracknabeal.

History

A Wimmera Football Association was first formed in 1902, with teams from Ararat, Horsham and Stawell as the founding clubs.

Collingwood (11.10 - 76) defeated Wimmera DFA (8.13 - 61) at Stawell in August 1913.[1]

The 1915 season commenced,[2] but was abandoned in July due to player shortages from enlistments into the Australian Armed Forces.[3]

In 1920 the Wimmera District Football League was reformed[4] and played for the May Cup. The four clubs involved in 1920 were Ararat, Horsham, Murtoa, Stawell.[5] Dimboola joined in 1923 and Nhill in 1925; Ararat spent six years in the Ballarat Football League from 1924 to 1929.

In 1926, the Victorian Football League played the Wimmera Football League at Horsham, with the VFL side defeating Wimmera by three points in heavy conditions.[6]

The Wimmera FL[7] defeated the Gippsland FL in 1928 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, lead by captain-coach, Artie Wood.[8]

In August 1929, Perth defeated the Wimmera FL in a match at Stawell.[9]

In 1930, the Wimmera FL defeated Essendon in heavy conditions at Ararat.[10]

In 1932, during the height of the Great Depression, the small town clubs were suffering from financial pressures, and tried to get the league to change the way the gate taking were distributed to the clubs. The larger town clubs, knowing that they would be disadvantaged, blocked the motion. Subsequently, Nhill and Dimboola both went into recess while Minyip and Murtoa replaced their junior sides in the Dunmunkle FL.

In 1931, Stawell's Horrie Hunt kicked 105 goals for the season.[11]

The WDFL approached the Ballarat Football League to merge hoping that greater interest and better football would cause larger gate takings, so in January 1934 the Wimmera FL and the Ballarat FL merged to form the Ballarat Wimmera FL.[12] After three years, in which the Wimmera clubs faced with greater costs and were constantly losing on the field, feelers were put out to the smaller clubs, now playing in the Mid Wimmera FL. A peace deal was settled in September 1936 and the Wimmera Football League was reformed in February 1937 at the Annual General Meeting with Mr. P J Toohey elected as President and a nine team competition was formed.[13]

Football in the Wimmera[14] was revived in 1944 with a competition[15] that involved six teams.

In 1945, Dimboola and Warracknabeal joined the Wimmera Football Association,[16] which formed a six team competition.[17]

In 1946 Rupanyup Football Club joined the Wimmera FL[18] and that made it a ten team competition.[19]

John Ledwidge was captain-coach of the Bendigo Football League representative team that won the 1962 VCFL Caltex Country Football Championships by defeating the Wimmera Football League at Horsham.[20]

As a ten team competition the league remain stable until Rupanyip decided the level of football was too hard for them and they opted to drop to the local district competition in 1981. The numbers returned to ten when local district club Imperials-Wonwondah joined in 1983. After fifty fruitless years Jeparit Football Club decided to try their luck in the South Mallee FL from 1990.

St Michaels from the district competition joined in 1993. Founding clubs Minyip and Murtoa decided to merge in 1995.

2000 saw local Horsham clubs change their names, St Michaels became Horsham Saints and Imperials-Wonwondah became the Horsham Diggers.

Horsham Diggers later merged with Natimuk FNC under the banner Natimuk United at the start of 2014; following an exodus of players in the 2008 pre-season, the Diggers had struggled on and off-field, and had won three matches in the previous four seasons. The merged club plays home games at Natimuk and City Oval.

Southern Mallee transferred from the Horsham District Football League in 2018 after dominating the competition.

Following the 2023 season Southern Mallee merged with Jeparit Rainbow from the Horsham District Football League to form the Southern Mallee Thunder.
