FEMALE FOOTBALL



The AFL has committed to the continued progression of the game for women and girls across all levels of Australian Football.


Focusing on the pillars of Participation, Pathways and Performance, and Partnerships, the AFL and AFL Victoria are supporting a number of initiatives that recognises the current state of play and forecasts future objectives and targets for the AFL across junior participation programs, community football, talent pathways, state leagues, administration, diversity and inclusion, umpiring, coaching and the NAB AFL Women’s Competition.


Through these implementation of these initiatives the AFL is striving to become the most accessible, inclusive and visible sport in Australia, and the number one sporting choice for girls and women.
