Australian Football International (AFI) has been established as a body to grow, develop and promote the sport of Australian Rules Football internationally.

What are AFI’s aims and objectives?
Key AFI aims and objectives include:

  • Empowering people and communities through sport.
  • Promotion of people-to-people links and the showcase of Australian culture and enterprise.
  • Ensuring inclusion of women and girls by providing no barriers to entry and female competitions.
  • Recognition of AFI as the International Federation of Australian Football.
  • Inclusion of Footy 9s as demonstration sport in the 2032 Olympic Games in Brisbane.

What is the relationship between AFI and the AFL?
Australian Football International (AFI) is an independent body and, as such, focuses on its own programs and activities.

Australian Rules Football, Aussie Rules and Footy are some of the names of the sport I have heard. What do you call the sport internationally?
We use the term ‘Footy’ to promote and grow the game internationally. For more information please click here.
