Contents

The Albury-Wodonga Football Association, which includes several clubs based in northern Victoria and southern NSW, is run by Football NSW, however since 2016 the Victorian based clubs have taken part in the Dockerty Cup & FFA Cup making some think they are now aligned with the Football Victoria.

Currently there is no promotion from the Victorian Regional Leagues to Victorian State League Division 5, however clubs may apply to join.
