KEILOR will host Strathmore at Joe Brown Oval on Good Friday to kick off the 2018 EDFL season.
The two Strathmore Community Bank Premier Division powerhouses have traditionally faced off on the pre-Easter public holiday since 2013, with Keilor playing host in 2018.
The EDFL has finalised the full Strathmore Community Bank Premier Division draw with Glenroy joining the top tier for the first time since 2009.
The Good Friday game leads into the rest of Round 1 the following weekend, with the Roys to play their first game in nine years as a Premier Division club at home to West Coburg on April 7.
Meanwhile, Glenroy will continue with its annual ANZAC Day game, hosting Strathmore at Sewell Reserve.
Also in Round 4, Aberfeldie will host Greenvale for the first time since they met in the 2017 Grand Final.
The Round 14 clash between Aberfeldie and Keilor will celebrate NAIDOC Week on July 14.
West Coburg will again play a majority of its home games at Coburg City Oval, with only two games scheduled for Shore Reserve in 2018.
Keilor (Round 4) and Maribyrnong Park (Round 12) will be their two opponents at Shore Reserve.
Rounds 5 and 14 will serve as split rounds, ensuring the Premier Division season will finish a week after Essendon Ford Division 1.
The finals will commence with Semi Final 2 on Saturday September 1, with the Preliminary Final to be played on Sunday September 9 (likely at Windy Hill).
The 2018 Strathmore Community Bank Premier Division Grand Final will be played at Windy Hill on Saturday September 15.
