  1. AFL • The name of my sport is AFL. • I am interested in this particular sport because it is a great team game and it keeps you fit and healthy. It also builds team players and team leaders. • I play for the Montmorency Football Club and we play at the Montmorency Football Oval.

  2. Where I play AFL

  3. Equipment Required Football Boots Mouthguard (if you wish) Helmet (if you wish) Monty Footy Shorts/Socks Monty Footy Jumper Skins (if you wish)/compression wear Match Ball (sherrin)

  5. Skills Required • Know how to win the ball • Have good tactics/decision making skills • Know how to kick on both feet • Know how to handball on both hands • Know how to take a contested mark • Know the rules • Know how to play as a team • Cope well under pressure

  6. The Cost • The cost can vary. It depends on which football boots and mouthguard you get. • Also the registration is about $120, quite reasonable pricing. • Plus whichever merchandise you want to purchase, such as Monty polo tops, Monty jackets etc..

  7. Training/Time I spend on this • I have football training once a week for Montmorency. Goes for about an hour. Then there’s a game on Sunday that go for 2 hours. • Plus whichever representative sides (NFL, Northern Knights, Vic Metro) you make is additional training, usually an extra 2 nights a week. I also do goal umpiring for seniors football, which takes up most of my Saturdays.

  8. What got me interested? • Well I grew up watching football on TV. My dad played football back in his day. Also our family likes football a lot, so that got me interested. Also it is a great game to play. • I did ‘Auskick’ for 2 years and that developed my skills and interests a fair bit.

  9. A Recommendation • AFL is a great physically active sport. You’ll always be fit and healthy if you keep playing this sport. You can make careers out of it, such as coaches, nutritionists, tactics coach etc.. and player. Players and coaches for the AFL get heaps of money. • Chris Judd gets $1million per year, who wouldn’t want that money?!

  11. AFL History • Tom Wills, one of the founders of AFL football, made the sport so cricketers could keep fit in the off-season. The first recorded match ever was between Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar School. The first club formed in 1858 which was the Melbourne Football Club. The Victorian Football League was established in 1896 and the first ever round robin was played. • The game has changed so much from then, it is now a lot faster and there are a lot more skills involved.

  12. Essendon My team that I barrack for in the AFL is Essendon. They are a very good team with some very good players. We have won 16 premierships over the whole history, which is the equal most with Carlton.

  13. Other • The AFL has now spread to China and even Japan. • There is a women’s football league and obviously a men’s football league. • There are currently 18 teams, but when I was growing up there were only 16.
