Vic squads picked for National Inclusion Carnival
The Vic Metro and Vic Country squads have been selected for the 2022 Toyota National Inclusion Carnival which will return for the first time since 2019 when State and Territory representative teams head to the Barossa Valley, South Australia for the competition from November 5 – 11.
First played in 2014, the Toyota AFL National Inclusion Carnival is an annual representative tournament for men with an intellectual disability and showcases these footballers to the broader community.
Victoria’s two teams will be hoping to repeat the state’s success of previous years, with Vic Metro taking home the title in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 and Vic Country winning the title in 2014.
Congratulations to all the players and their FIDA clubs on being selected to represent Victoria.
