[edit] Introduction
Wonthaggi Power Football Club plays Australian rules football in the Alberton Football League in Victoria, Australia.
The club is made up of two Wonthaggi teams Rovers & Blues.
Both clubs could not attract enough players or committee to stand alone but it made sense to pool resources and amalgamate the two clubs.
To assist in the amalgamation we wanted to develop a local family friendly club which was a great place for juniors to grow up.
Teams in Competition: • Netball: U/13 U/15 U/17 A B & C grade
• Football: U/11 U/13 U/15 U/18 Reserves & Senior
Season 2005: Seniors & U/15 Football Premiers. U17 Netball Premiers.
