The first women’s Aussie Rules league in the UK is being launched with a team from Wimbledon among the inaugural entrants.
The Wandsworth Demons and Wimbledon Hawks will join the South East London Giants and the North London Lions as the country’s first competitive women’s teams in the new London league.
The Australian Football League (AFL) is the highest-level professional competition in the sport of Australian Rules football. The game has experienced a surge in popularity in London since the establishment of the men’s game 25 years ago and the teams will train with their male counterparts.
The season starts on April 18 and runs until August. Details can be found on Womens AFF London Facebook page or Womens AFL London Twitter page.
