THE INAUGURAL BRIAN HARVEY CUP
A new tradition begins as two proud clubs come together to honour the life and legacy of a man who left a lasting impact on everyone he met.
Brian Harvey (10th September 1949 - 9th July 2025) served as our club's president in 1986 and 1987, and was inducted into the HFNC 'Tiger's of Old' Hall of Fame (the highest honour the club has) in 2016.
Brian was also involved in the Diamond Creek Football Club after his HFNC club involvement, serving as club president in 1996 through 1998. He was made a life member in 2012.
Join us as Diamond Creek Football Netball Club and Heidelberg Football Netball Club battle for the inaugural Brian Harvey Cup — a match dedicated to celebrating Brian's passion for football, friendship, community and club spirit.

Other Round 9 games this weekend:

"St Mary’s unbeaten run remains intact thanks to a dominant 81-point win over Heidelberg.
The Burra were always in control and had the game in hand by half time when the score read 60-1 in their favour, keeping the Tigers goalless for the match to record their seventh win of the season.
Megan Girolami and Jii Williams kicked three goals each for the winners and Mikayla Plunkett and Kiara Delia were among the best players for St Mary’s. Rebekah Miller again earned the nod for Heidelberg as their best player as they battled through the afternoon along with Mikayla Lee and Chloe Edmends."
NFNL Heidelberg Golf Club Division 1 – Round 8 Review
"The highly anticipated grand final rematch failed to live up to expectations as Heidelberg produced another dominant display over Hurstbridge to remain undefeated and cement its position at the top of the ladder, now ten points clear of second-place Montmorency.
After a competitive opening half, the Tigers completely took control after the main break, restricting Hurstbridge to just one goal in the second half on their way to a commanding 79-point victory.
Heidelberg’s midfield once again set the tone, led by the ever-reliable Tom Keys. Keys continued his stellar season with 28 disposals and an outstanding 14 clearances, consistently giving his side first use in the midfield.
He received excellent support from a deep midfield group, with Luke Bunker collecting 31 disposals, Matthew McInerney finishing with 28, and 27 apiece to Nathan Honey and Dylan Clarke.
Blake Fitzgerald continued to work tirelessly for the Bridges despite the heavy defeat. Fitzgerald gathered 36 disposals, including 18 contested possessions, while also recording eight marks and eight clearances. Cameron Wild was another strong contributor with 22 disposals.
The result sees Heidelberg continue its unbeaten run, while Hurstbridge slips to third place after another difficult challenge against the competition benchmark."
