The 2026 football season has ended, and there is plenty to celebrate from Manly Vale FC’s 75th year. Across our teams, the season brought football, friendships and a community that kept showing up for each other.
Our season in numbers
Our club’s season summary celebrates 101 teams: 62 kids teams and 39 competition teams, with 12 teams reaching grand finals. Thank you to everyone who came to Cromer Park to support the Vale across the grand-final weekends.
Success on the pitch
Among the season’s highlights, the W14/3 team secured its league title with a 4–0 win over Brookvale. Congratulations to the players, coaches Sarah Taylor and James Higby, and manager Tamara Tyler on that achievement.
A community effort
Our 75th anniversary raffle raised almost $12,000 for the club. Thank you to everyone who sold and bought tickets, and to KIKOFF Harbord for donating the Bubble Soccer prizes.
Congratulations to Poppie from W10 Maroons and the W13/1 team, recognised as the individual and team ticket-sales winners.
Thank you, Vale
To our players, coaches, managers, volunteers, sponsors and families: thank you for the time, energy and support you gave throughout the season. From organising teams to cheering on the sidelines, you helped make our 75th year one to remember.
