The Millewa Football League is an Australian rules football league with teams based in north-western Victoria and south-western New South Wales, Australia.
The clubs are mostly based within the same area as the clubs in the Sunraysia Football League, but generally represent smaller towns and communities. Clubs only field one senior football team and up to five netball teams.




History


The Millewa Football Association was reformed in 1925. At this time it had teams representing Lock 9, Lake Cullulleraine and Werrimull, and a team called "the Kangaroos". Lake Cullulleraine were the premiers that year. A fortnight after the grand final, a combined association team played the Mildura Football Club in a charity match.
In 1932, the now Millewa Football League contained teams from Bambill, Karawinna, Meringur, Merinee, Pirlta and Werrimull.
Due to World War II, the league went into recess between 1942 and 1945. Media coverage of this league was non-existent between 1940 and 1960. Regular scores did not start appearing in the press until the mid-1970s. Meringur went into recess prior to the 2012 season due to lack of players attributed to the population decline in the district, however returned in 2013. Euston merged with Robinvale of the Sunraysia Football League before the beginning of the 2015 to play in that competition.



= League Best and Fairest - The McDonald Medal
=
The McDonald Medal is an annual award presented to the best and fairest player in the Millewa Football League. Established in memory of Donald McDonald, a prominent figure in the league's history, the medal is awarded by his family.
Donald McDonald served as president of the Millewa Football League from 1946, following its reformation after World War II, until 1962. His contributions to the league were recognized by the Victorian Country Football League, which awarded him the Recognition of Service Medal.
After his passing in 1962, his family initiated the presentation of the McDonald Medal in his honour. The inaugural medal was awarded in the same year and was shared by David Finn of Bambill and Bill Woods of Werrimull. Over the decades, many talented players have received this prestigious medal, highlighting their achievements within the Millewa League.
