Lake Wallace is a freshwater lake located in Edenhope in the Western District of Victoria, Australia. The lake is named after William Wallace.[1]
In 1866, Australian cricketer Tom Wills trained a team of Aborigines on the lake's banks. The team played throughout Victoria and New South Wales, and several members formed the Aboriginal team which toured England in 1868.
