Werribee City is one of 30 clubs to have been invited into the inaugural National Premier League Victoria (NPL) competition.
The Bees will join Green Gully Cavaliers, Melbourne Knights, St Albans Saints and Sunshine George Cross as the western suburbs’ representatives.
Bees sports director Giorgio Pastorini said “hours and hours” of toil was needed to make the submission a successful one.
“The club is excited to know we’re in,” he said.
The structure of the inaugural NPL is yet to see the light of day outside Football Federation Victoria headquarters.
Pastorini strongly believes it will be a two division promotion and relegation system for year one.
“We presume they will make two divisions, but we don’t know which one we’ll be added in,” he said.
“We should be in the top one given that we gained promotion last season, but you never know.
“We don’t know anything else until this week because they are really giving us information drop by drop.”
The NPL itinerary will be released on February 26.
