Newbridge

Newbridge’s tally of fifteen senior grade Loddon Valley Football League premierships is a competition record shared with Bridgewater. However, eight of those flags came the Maroons’ way in the space of nine seasons prior to the first world war. Between 1904 and 1910 Newbridge won every premiership on offer - a staggering seven in succession - and few clubs anywhere can boast a similar sequence of triumphs. The Maroons were also a force during the late 1920s and early 1930s, emerging victorious from three grand finals in five seasons, but since then success has only been sporadically achieved. The club’s most recent senior grade premiership was attained in 2000 with its most recent grand final appearance coming in 2008 against Calivil United, which won by 27 points.
