The Deniliquin Rovers Football & Netball Club, nicknamed Rovers, is an Australian rules football and netball club playing in the Picola & District Football League. The club is based in the Riverina town of Deniliquin, New South Wales.
Many years ago, there was a Deniliquin Rovers FC that played in the defunct Denilquin Half Day Holiday Football Association and won the 1907 premiership [1] and also won the 1928 Deniliquin Football Association premiership. [2]
The current Deniliquin Rovers FNC was established in 1977 to accommodate the large number of local junior football talent available at the time [3] and the club has played all their football in the Picola & District Football League.
