Bendigo City FC denied team in Victorian Women's Community Premier League

The club in Central Victoria says it has been denied the opportunity to field female teams in the state's community premier league competition — and it's "not acceptable".
The article from ABC News discusses the plight of Bendigo City FC, a women's soccer team in Victoria, Australia, which has been left without a team to play against in the Women's Community Premier League (WCPL) following the withdrawal of several clubs.
