Sydney to welcome 30 new teams in U12 girls next year as AFLW sparks NSW interest

The instant success of AFLW is driving Aussie rules participation levels to new highs in NSW and the ACT.
An amazing 30 teams competed in the first under 12 competition for girls in 2017 and it set to be followed up by another new under 10 comp next year.
AFL NSW/ACT boss Sam Graham said the value of the new national women’s competition can’t be overrated with the involvement of new female players.
“AFLW exceeded all expectations,” Graham said.
“Now we’ve got role models for our female players. Auskick was always strong with young girls now we’ve completed the pathway through to AFLW. We will have an under 10 competition in 2018 which will complete the pathway from entry level to the elite. It’s right across Sydney, we’re strong in the east and west and north and south. The interest and demand from girls and women to play has been overwhelming.”
“Accommodating the growth is one of our biggest challenges
Sports participation figures can be rubbery at the best of times but the growth of AFL in NSW is now coming at the level it counts most, the clubs.
NSW and the ACT now have the strongest development in Australia where
Club participation grew 8.2% off the back of a massive 78% increase in the number of female participants playing in registered Club football competitions.
Overall participation in AFL competitions and programs across the region grew 7.3% in 2017 to over 250,000 participants making the AFL community in NSW and the ACT Australia’s third largest participation base in the country behind Victoria and Western Australia.
The Giants success is also seeing double digit growth in Auskick in Western Sydney.
“The strong performances of the Swans and Giants on-field has been a big driver as well as the work they do as role models in the community,” Graham said.
“The quality of our school programs has led to a strong transition rates into Auskick and junior club football. The quality of our club environments is getting better and better where our volunteers have run inclusive and fun competitions for kids to enjoy.”
•Since 2010, participation has more than doubled across New South Wales and the ACT.
•7.2% participation growth year on year in 2017
•8.2% growth in club football in 2017 (this is the highest in the country)
•12% participation increase in Northern NSW
•10% increase in Auskick participation in Greater Western Sydney
•Approx. 25% increase in AFL 9s participants across New South Wales and the ACT

Re: AFLW sparks NSW interest
We'll have to get David Lawson back on the job to examine these figures before they can be believed. Remember back in 2012 the AFL told the world they had an increase of 27% participation in Sydney before the good Dr pointed out the REAL figures showed a 6% decrease Lololololololololololololololololl. Yep........they lied!!!!!
Unfortunately the AFL have since locked Dr Lawson up in a steel crate so he can't tell the truth again.

Re: AFLW sparks NSW interest
Well when the afl reported was it 70-or 80 k female registered players a few years back I thought anybody who believes that is brainwashed .
Looks like the participation bullshit continues .
& nothing's changed with the brainwashed believers .

Re: AFLW sparks NSW interest
Agree, but we do have to keep calling them on it. If we let it go then they just reaffirm there beliefs. The AFL figures just defy logic, they are not possible in any reality but still the fanboys believe.
AFL = Cult? amazed they haven't tried to claim religious tax exemption.

Re: AFLW sparks NSW interest
I think participation is a rubbery term that includes everything so would not put any credence in that. I don’t think they are lying as the term is quite nebulous - just as Rl experience used by nrl is.
The figures to look at are registered club participation. This is something that can be easily verifiable and actually means kids playing a game and training etc. the afl do break these “ participation” numbers down into categories .

Re: AFLW sparks NSW interest
As I said FFA direct people to the Sports Commission, why do we need to lie? We are the largest club participation sport in Australia in every survey conducted (except of course the made up AFL ones)leagueiscrap wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2017 1:43 pmPost the claimed published figures that the aye league and nrlol outs out and compare them to the asc then
