History

The Hampden Football League was formed in 1930, when the four founding clubs broke away from the Western District FL. Terang and Camperdown did not want to continue to travel to Hamilton because their players were farmers who could not spend all day away from the farm to play football, as they had cows to milk.[1]

Colac and Coragulac merged to form Colac-Coragulac in 1980. In 1986, they dropped Coragulac from the club's name, then in 2001 Colac left the Hampden league to join the Geelong FL.

North Warrnambool were admitted to the league in the 1997 season.

In 1999, Mortlake and Derrinallum merged to form the Western Lions, however the club was not successful and folded during the 2000 season. Mortlake then attempted a new merger with Terang, which has proven successful and continues to the current day, with matches played in both towns.[2]

In 2013 teams from regional centres Hamilton and Portland will compete.

The year 2020 saw the senior football and netball season cancelled as a consequence of the COVID–19 pandemic.
