Oct 15, 2016 Four Seasons in a Day - Day 1 at Nationals Four seasons in a day. That’s what we had on Saturday in Lakewood Ranch; sun, clouds, rain, wind, humidity. We also saw another slate of amazing footy matches, many of which were streamed online via USAFL.com. As in last year, there is still a lot to play for across all six divisions, with virtually no dead rubbers and many teams still with a crack at Sunday afternoon glory. Read more » |

Oct 12, 2016 2016 USAFL Nationals Preview - Women's Division After an important growth year for women’s footy in the USA, 2016 once again was a showcase of just how strong the female football program is in the country. It’s going to be hard to top last year’s 10th Anniversary Nationals, however. Heading into the last set of Division 1 matches, four of the five clubs competition had a chance to be crowned premiers, and in the end the song remained the same. Denver, despite being tripped up by Minnesota, continued to write their legendary story and hoist their sixth straight Nationals cup. Read more » |

Sep 9, 2016 Same as it Ever Was; No Major Changes to Poll Shh… can you hear it? Silence. Well, maybe not complete silence, save the fluttering of Eagles’ wings and Tigers’ paws, but other than the shuffling of several teams, an eerily quiet Top 20 Poll, the next to last one before Nationals’ seedings are announced at the end of the month, saw 17 teams stand pat.

Sep 1, 2016 Maidens Look to Defend East-West Showdown Crown It began simply as friendly banter on the other side of the world.

But this was different. This was a group of women representing the USA Freedom national team at the 2014 International Cup in Melbourne. Moreso, they represented two long established footy clubs separated by 3,000 miles of real estate. Read more » |

Aug 10, 2016 Women's Footy: We Are All Game Changers Over a decade ago, I fell in love with a sport that I had never heard of and happened to discover. It was unlike anything that I knew but integrated all the traditional sports that I grew up playing. As a single mother and recent college graduate, joining the Arizona Hawks fulfilled my craving to be a part of a team. Alongside my sister (by choice, not birth), now my coach, I played my first game at the 2005 USAFL Nationals in the inaugural women's division. Read more » |
