The Nyah Nyah West United Football Netball Club, nicknamed the Demons or United, is an Australian rules football and netball club based in Nyah, a town in northern Victoria. The club's teams currently play in the Central Murray Football Netball League. Born out of a merger between neighbouring Nyah and Nyah West in 1978, the Demons have won three senior football premierships in their history, going back-to-back in 2000 and 2001, then winning the 2024 Premiership defeating Kerang by 54 points.
History
[edit]Nyah Nyah West United was formed in 1978 when Nyah Football Club and Nyah West Football Club of the Mid-Murray Football League elected to merge.[2] The club's senior team initially struggled following their formation. Following the 1996 season, the club moved to the Central Murray Football League following the merge of the Mid-Murray, Northern and Echuca leagues.[3]
