The East Gippsland Football League was formed in 1974 via the merger of the Gippsland Football League and the Bairnsdale District Football League. The league has had a number of clubs fold, merge, leave and return over its history, due partly to changing economic circumstances in the area, with areas such as Orbost losing large amounts of their population. At one stage in the 1980s, the league had two divisions, with the second division breaking away in 1986 to form the Riviera Football League. Most of these clubs returned to the league in 2004 after the Riviera FL disbanded, although others moved to the Omeo & District Football League.
