All metro football leagues including the Essendon District, Western Region and Victorian Amateur Football Association are transitioning to PlayHQ next season for all football competition management, including registrations and match day management. This will bring the Metro Leagues in line with the rest of the country, so all Leagues will be operating on the one platform for the 2024 season. Comprehensive training of League staff on the new platform will commence shortly, followed by training of club personnel, to be ready for the transition for the new football year from November 1.
