AFL Rec Footy – Putting fun into footy

As the 2008 football season draws to a close, another football season is just about to start.

AFL Recreational Football has been recently developed to provide an opportunity for all Australian Football enthusiasts to enjoy participating in a modified game that has strong parallels with the traditional game.

AFL Recreational Football is designed so that everyone can play; it is less physically demanding, has minimal time commitment with no risk of series injury and a major emphasis on fun and safety (non-contact).


Played in a friendly, social environment, the game enables people of all ages and ability levels to participate in male, female or mixed competitions.
