Keith Ellerton, now 75, fronted Warrnambool Magistrates' Court on Friday for a committal mention hearing.
He entered guilty pleas to two indecent assault charges, including one rolled-up charge involving a series of separate offences dating back to 1992.
The court heard the charges related to offending between January 1, 1992 and 31 December, 1992 and involved a female victim aged under 16.
A prosecutor told the court that Ellerton touched the victim on her breasts on eight separate occasions.
Mr Ellerton will appear in the Warrnambool County Court for a plea hearing on October 9.
He was placed on bail with conditions, including he reside at a static address and notify police within 24 hours of any proposed change of address.
