Call this the undercard if you must, but there is plenty of talent, action, and excitement at the lower levels of the USAFL Nationals.
Teams are competing not just for a trophy this weekend, but for the chance to move up a division at next nationals. From the champions of yore looking to claw their way back to the top, to teams who have been treading water for several years looking to make the breakthrough, to the new kids on the block, Divisions 2, 3, and 4 on the men's side have something for everyone.
Here is a look at who each of these divisions will shake out.

More and more women are playing Australian Rules Football.
And more importantly, the football they’re playing is getting better with each passing year.
For the first time in USAFL history, there will be not one, but two Grand Finals in the women’s divisions, with both competitions fielding six sides. All told, 24 clubs will be represented in the Women’s Competition as a whole, the most ever.

In last week's "Count Down to 2019 USAFL Nationals" newsletter we announced the partnership with the Movember Foundation for the 2019 USAFL Movember Campaign which will be kicking off at Nationals. We need all clubs to get involved this year as Movember is a MAJOR charity partner for the AFL and the USAFL will be building this partnership this year and in the future.
