Comment

This photo is unusual in being the only one in the entire Boyles football collection (at the State Library of Victoria) displaying a member of the female gender. One woman hoisting the flag and another group of females in the grandstand. Unidentified grandstand.

Further Work Needed

The Victorian Sub-district Football League? Victorian Southern Districts Football League?

See 1986.1170.1000.jpg
Note the men, boys and football players

The Following Photos appear to be taken at the same ground
122_122 - Unknown Team Richmond-style
122_192 - Junior Team Collingwood-style



I can find references to the Victorian Sub-district Football League, but not the Southern Districts. Also the Sub Districts League included teams such as Fitzroy and East Brunswick which were close to Boyles residence.
