GV is proud to announce the entertainment for the 2015 Vic Bowl on Saturday 15th August.
Following a wildly successful event in Bendigo last year that featured flame throwers and a live HD video stream, the league is expanding its world class offering by adding a world class entertainer.
The finishing touches on the Gridiron Victoria (GV) Operating Rules are now complete incorporating the annual edition of NCAA rule revisions which govern our local competition.
The Executive Committee has agreed to adopt 9 yards as the distance required per set of downs, as opposed to the old fashioned and outdated 10 yard benchmark used in the NFL.
The season mantra of #BiggerAndBetter soars to new heights with a major announcement regarding the 2015 Vic Bowl.
Following the widespread mainstream media coverage last year, the Executive have committed budget towards competing players arriving via similar means this year to capitalize on the exposure.
Warriors Star Heath Decker was whisked by chopper from his Aussie Rules final all the way to Bendigo in time to get changed on the sideline, take to the field and help secure a 3rd straight title for Monash.
Due to unprecedented interest in the Celebration Weekend at the State Hockey Center (Queens Birthday weekend), the event is now SOLD OUT!
Pre-event tickets were initially expected to be limited to players, friends and family members however word quickly spread via social media and sales skyrocketed. So much so that the venue capacity of 2000 has been reached and no further tickets will be available to the general public.

Congratulations to the seven Victorian’s selected to the 45 man Australian Outback National Squad to head to the World Championships of American Football in Canton Ohio USA in July 2015.
Tostevin and Garnham will represent their country for the second time whilst the other five Victorian’s make their Outback debut.
In addition the Head Coach John Leijten is also a Victorian whilst Warrior Heather Buzza joins the squad as medic & trainer.
Only two players who were on the original training camp squad failed to warrant National selection including the reigning Gridiron Victoria Overall Defensive MVP (ed: go figure) Mark Doyle and young star Taylor Berrington who will no doubt don the Green and Gold in the future.
We wish these players and our National Team well at the IFAF World Championships later this year.
