Notable events

  • Prior to round 1, the VAFA Umpires Association said it was considering "disruptions" to the 2025 season after having their bonuses for finals matches removed.[85] The dispute was resolved on 3 April 2025, with umpires receiving an increase in practice match payments and reimbursements for visits to clubs during the pre-season.[86]
  • On 22 September 2025, University Blues under-19s player Will Richter died after being struck by a truck while cycling.[87][88]
  • On 29 October 2025, 17-year-old VAFA umpire Ben Austin died in hospital, one day after being struck in the neck by a ball in practice nets while playing cricket.[89][90] Austin had made his senior Premier Men's umpiring debut in round 11 and officiated in the Premier Men's reserves grand final.[91][92]

Notes

  1. ^ a b c d e f g h i j Under the VAFA's regrading policy, a team that is moved to a higher section will retain their points for/against totals from the pre-regrading matches, but a team that is moved to a lower section will have all their points for/against totals from the pre-regrading matches removed.[34]
  2. ^ a b c Preston Bullants were moved from Division 4 to Division 3 as part of the mid-season regrading, but were moved back down to Division 4 after two matches (including a forfeit).[79][80]
