VFLW VFLW 2023 - Geelong & the greater league

[cats_09]

Thought it's time to kick start this thread as we move into pre-season training time ahead of the 2023 season

First point of call is welcoming on board our new VFLW senior coach, and she's one who's familiar to the club having been on both our AFLW & VFLW lists, as well as being an assistant coach with both teams - welcome to Elise Coventry ahead of her first season in charge

There will be plenty of familiar faces in the team next season, with a returning core group of players, as well as several AFLW-listed Cats putting their hand up to play.

“We’ve got a good core group returning from the VFL program – they’re leading the charge already with getting the group together for coffee after training and things like that, so socially the group of players is coming together really quickly,” Coventry said.

“Because we had such a fit AFLW side this year, there’s probably about seven or eight girls who haven’t played enough footy in 2022, who will look to play quite a few games leading into their pre-season.

“It’s almost going to run alongside their pre-season, so it will complement what they’re doing on the track through the week. A few (players) in their meetings at the end of the year flagged that they might come for a few cameos, so we’ll just watch that play out.”

A start date for the 2023 VFL Women’s season is yet to be confirmed by the league.
