Bellarine FL

The Bellarine Football League was formed in 1971 as a name change from the Polwarth Football League in order to better recognise the small changes in club structure with the addition of clubs on the Bellarine Peninsula.
==History==
The founding clubs of the competition were Barwon Heads, Drysdale, Leopold, Ocean Grove, Portarlington, Queenscliff, Torquay and Winchelsea. Anglesea joined the competition in 1973 and Newcomb joined in 1976. In 1983 Winchelsea left and in 1985 they were replaced by St Leonards who only stayed until 1990. In 1992 Leopold left and joined the Geelong FL bringing the competition back to eight clubs.
In 1995 Geelong Amateurs joined, followed by Modewarre in 1996. Also in 1996 Portarlington merged with St Leonards and in 1999 the club went back to being call Portarlington. The competition has remained stable since with the 2020 season abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as was the 2021 season after a handful of games.
