HISTORY OF HVFC
The modern Happy Valley Football Club was born in 1951 and began
playing football in 1952 in blue and gold guernsey's in the Hills Central
League. In the early sixties the club left the Hills competitio n to join the
Glenelg, South and West League. To avoid clashing wit h Glandore the
Vikings made the adjustment to black and gold, the colours, we as a
club now call our own.
The Vikings won premierships at the top le vel in both 1970 and 1974 under
the captaincy of Wayne Baxter, but these were in the third divisio n of the
league. The Happy Valley/Aberfoyle Park area was mostly vineyards or
sheep paddocks at this time. We held an insignificant power until the
eightie s when we joined the Southern League. We were accepted in
Division 11 and made the Grand Final in our first season, playing regular
finals football until 1984 when we moved to Divisio n 1.
The mid eighties in Division1 saw the Vikings on the end of some big
thrashings. At that moment, the mood changed and a lo t of people , too
many to mentio n, decided to change the cult ure of the football club.
Some important and bold decisio ns were made that turned our reputation as one of the easy teams in the competitio n, into one of the most
feared and respected clubs in the SFL.
We threatened to make the finals in 1990 and eventually got there in
1991, as well as winning premierships in 1992,1993,1995,1996,1998 and
1999. A couple of years passed when we wait ed for our juniors to become men and we won an A Grade premiership in 2003. From then we
never missed a finals series and in 2012 our A Grade won another premiership against Brighton.
Many relate our success to the development of the area, neighbouring
one of the biggest High School’s in the state, but to be the best requires
more than numbers. You also need the best coaches, the best trainers,
the best support staff and the best administratio n. We have been very
fortunate to have had an exceptio nal qualit y of personnel involved at all
levels of our club. Our forefathers have left a legacy we can all be proud
of and we can all walk talle r on the back of their success. Our standards
are high, our expectatio ns are high, and the rewards so far have been
worth the effort. Lets continue the legacy and club success in 2016 and
beyond.
Wear the Big “V” proudly!

HVFC PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
A big welcome to all our players, sponsors, supporters and volunteers
for season 2016.
Last year was another successful year for the Club having 4 out of the 5
Saturday teams in the finals and 2 out of the 3 Sunday teams in finals.
This is a tremendous achie vement for the Club and highlights the continued strength of our Club.
After a search for an A grade coach four weeks into the 2015 season,
Steve Wallace was appointed. Steve did a great job for the remainder
of the season and brought a sense of respect from the players to those
who give up their time to ensure the Club runs smoothly which is sometimes forgotten. I would like to thank all the coaches, coordinators, support staff and parents from Sub Juniors to Senior’s who made 2015 a
successful year.
I would like to thank in partic ular the management committee and executive for 2015. Talking to other Club Presidents across the SFL I am
lucky to have this team, the professionalism and value that these people portray cannot be under estimated. A big thank you also to my wife
Heather, she doesn’t get involved in a direct way at the Club but is a
great sounding board for me when I have decisions to make or a bad
day at the football.
We cannot afford to become complacent, we have fantastic facilit ies,
good junior program, developing senio r group and great committee
but we need to alw ays be looking for opportunities for improvement.
Continuous improvement and succession planning should be paramount in our thinking and every decisio n we make. We should ask ourselves is this decisio n helping H.V.F.C. to be the best club in the Southern
Football League.
Finally I would like to welcome past premiership player Ben Cole man
back to the Club and congratulate him on his selectio n as Club/A
grade Coach for season 2016.

body temperature from high intensit y sport in a hot environment is significant, and can lead to heat illness presented as heat exhaustion and
heat stroke. The Happy Valley Football Club also recognizes that children
are at a higher risk than adults. Symptoms can be worse if fluid replacement during exercise is inadequate whic h leads to fluid lo ss and dehydration.

VOLUNTEERS
The involv ement of volunteers at HVFC is the key to success and lo ng
term sustainabilit y of the Club. The commitment volunteers make in terms
of their time is substantial. Volunteers are vit al to the successful running of
HVFC. Clubs rely on volunteers to take an active interest in the future of
their organisation and their specific roles wit hin it. As a part of the HVFC
community it is required that each member is to donate a few hours of
their time over the course of the season. This time can be utilized in the
following ways:
How can you help?
On the Field:
• Goal umpires,
• Boundary umpires
• Water runners
• Become a trainer
• Time keeper
• Set up and cleaning of the grounds before & after a home game
• Scoreboard attendants
Off the field:
• Wash guernseys
• Help in the canteen
• Help in the BBQ
• Help on the gate on game days
• Assisting in oval set up and cle an up for social events
• Join the committee
A volunteer roster will be giv en to each player and it is an expectatio n
that this is adhered to - club hour penaltie s will apply if players do not
attend. If you are unable to do your shift, please find someone to do
your shift for you and le t the team manager and a committee member
know.
More hands make light work, every little bit helps—
the club cannot run without you!

I WANT TO BE A VALLEY VIKING
(Captain first; team follows)
I want to be a Valley Viking
I want to live a life of danger
High flyer
Body liner
We're the team that we love best
Especially when we beat the rest
We played (opposition team)
Beat them flying
We played (opposition team nickname)
Beat them trying
Rest are beat but not forgotten
Dig 'em up and drill 'em rotten
I want to be a Valley Viking
We're the best
Stuff the rest
