THE wait might have been a little longer than expected, but Portland’s soccer teams are set for their first round of action today when they travel to Port Fairy to take on the Plovers in round one of the South West Victoria Football Association’s 2024 season.

Portland’s senior women’s team will take part in its first fixture tomorrow at 2pm against Warrnambool Rangers in Warrnambool, in what will be an exciting occasion for the team as it will be their first game since the side was re-established after an absence of several years.
