Ovens & King FL

The Ovens and King Football League formed in 1903.
==History==
In 1928 the member clubs were Eldorado, Milawa, Whorouly, Wangaratta Rovers, Moyhu, Everton, Myrtleford and Tarrawingee. In 1929 Eldorado and Tarrawingee left the competition and were replaced by Beechworth from the Ovens & Murray FL and North Wangaratta. In 1930 Wang Rovers went into recess and Wangaratta fielded their B team in the competition. This led to Wangaratta following Beechworth into the competition in 1931 although Beechworth changed to their seconds while their seniors went to the Chiltern FL. In 1933 Wangaratta returned to the O&MFL and were replaced by Waratah. In 1934 Beechworth's seniors returned but North Wangaratta went into recess as did Everton. In 1935 King Valley joined the league and Eldorado returned. In 1939 Waratah folded and Wangaratta fielded their seconds in the competition but in 1940 the competition dropped to four clubs due to World War 2 - Beechworth, Milawa, Moyhu and Whorouly. In 1941 a few extra teams came in - Rainbows, Magpies and Myrtleford West - but the league went into recess in 1942.
In 1945, Milawa, Moyhu and Whorouly returned along with Myrtleford and King Valley. Wangaratta Rovers returned from recess and two new clubs joined - Greta and Tarrawingee. In 1946 Beechworth and Eldorado returned from the war recess. In 1950 Myrtleford and Wangaratta Rovers headed for the O&MFL, but in 1952 their seconds came into the league. That only lasted a season. In 1954 Chiltern and Bogong arrived in the league, while in 1955 Bright also arrived - replacing Eldorado who folded. In 1960 Bogong left while in 1961 North Wangaratta returned from recess. This led to many years of stability.
In 1992 Rutherglen/Corowa and Glenrowan joined the league. In 2001 the former dropped the Corowa from their name to be just Rutherglen. In 2003 Chiltern headed to the Tallangatta District FL while Tarrawingee went into recess. Tarrawingee returned in 2004 but the league also lost Beechworth and Rutherglen to the TDFL. All Blacks joined the league in 2005. A big influx happened in 2010 due to the folding of the Benalla District FL, with Bonnie Doon, Goorambat, Swanpool and Tatong joining.
In 2014 the league struck controversy - instructing Goorambat, Swanpool and Tatong to merge into one club to bring the club numbers back to twelve. Swanpool and Tatong refused outright to merge with Goorambat and while they were willing to merge with each other this wasn't enough for the league and they were ejected from the competition. The two clubs took the league to court but a settlement was reached and the two clubs ended up going into recess with nowhere to play.
Prior to the 2020 season, Glenrowan announced they were going into recess. It didn't matter as that season and the 2021 season were both abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
