Regional Team Events are held across Victoria each year for teams from both metropolitan associations and from our 11 country regions. These prestigious team events showcase emerging junior talent and provide players with the opportunity to represent their region in a team environment. The selection of athletes for each team is based on merit and the individual selection processes within each association and region.
For more information or if you’re interested in representing your Region, please contact your Region Representative.
