The Picola & District Football Netball League is an Australian rules football league affiliated with AFL Victoria Country.

The league covers a large area of northern Victoria and southern New South Wales from Shepparton in the south to Jerilderie in the north and consists of teams from the smaller communities and towns. The Grand Final is traditionally hosted by Katunga.

History

The league commenced in 1934, founding clubs were Barmah, Kotupna, Moira, Nathalia Seconds, Picola, and Yalca North. This league replaced the Western and Moira Football Association that operated between 1908 and 1933. Between 1945 and 1958 Nurmukah and Nathalia both field second XVIII sides in the PDFNL. In 1971 founding clubs Picola and Yalca North merged to form Picola United. In 1992 Danny Irwin of Waaia kicked 215 goals in a season. In 2006, Dookie United and Shepparton East made their debut with the league. They were previously in the now defunct Central Goulburn Football League.

Splitting the league

In the 2009 season, the Picola League split into South East and North West divisions based on the geographical location of each club. The league copped a lot of criticism by making this move but has generally been successful and has resulted in reduced travel. The exception has been Wunghnu, which inexplicably was placed in the NW division despite being surrounded by SE division clubs. Wunghnu folded less than two seasons after the split.

In 2014 Tocumwal joined the PDFNL from the Murray League.

The Picola Football league matches are umpired by the Goulbourn Valley Umpires Association.
