Alberton sets up for 2016

EASTER is early in 2016 with Good Friday falling on March 25.
Easter will bring more than a proliferation of rabbits in South Gippsland; it also marks the opening round of matches in the Alberton Football Netball League.
With the grand final replay between 2015 premiers Dalyston and Fish Creek played in Round Three, the match of the opening round is the game between the two teams which finished the 2015 home-and-away season second and third on the ladder, Phillip Island and Stony Creek.
The draw for the season also features three night games under lights including the opening round match between Foster and Fish Creek.
Avoiding the milder pre-winter weather the other night matches are both in Round Five, Korumburra-Bena versus MDU and Foster versus Toora.
Players not involved in the Interleague Championships on the weekend of May 21/22 will have respite from normal competition.
A bye has been inserted into the season on the weekend of July 9/10 in what the league president Barry Stride describes as a progressive measure.
Mr Stride says it will allow the clubs to replenish their lists and take to the last four weeks of home-and-away competition with fresh legs.
