We offer flexible commitment levels to fit your busy schedule,
including full-season roster spots, occasional substitute roles, and
training-only or purely social memberships.
The Best Sport for Crossover Athletes
If you previously played sports, your skills will transfer to Australian Football faster than you think. AFL combines the kicks of soccer, the aerial plays of ultimate, the dribbling of basketball, the speed of lacrosse, and the physicality of hockey.
It is a dynamic sport with no offside rules, allowing you to run anywhere, pass by kicking or hand-punching the ball, and work together in a fun, fast-paced flow.
Check out our training and match schedule.

New to Australian Rules Football?
Most of our players started with absolutely zero experience, so if you are curious, the best way to understand footy is to just come out and try it.
