The Sebastopol Vikings and the newly-titled Eureka Strikers are less than three weeks away from season kick-off in the Football Federation Victoria state league series.

Both start their campaigns on Sunday, April 12 at home.

The Strikers will attempt to put a forgettable 2014 season behind them, in which they branched off from the Ballarat Red Devils and became a separate entity.

Eureka’s season starts against Monbulk Rangers.

Meanwhile, the Vikings will be a fascinating outfit to follow in 2015 as the club attempts to follow the lead of the men, and entrench two competitive teams in state league soccer.

After two years of dominating at Ballarat District Soccer Association level, the Vikings will play round one against Altona Magic at St Georges Reserve.
