The USAFL Executive Board and National Championships Committee are excited to formally announce that the 2011 Nationals will take place in Austin, Texas over the weekend of October 8 - 9th.
“It is an honor for Austin to be chosen for the USAFL National Tournament, and we are excited to host this one-of-a-kind event,” says Matthew Payne, executive director of the Austin Sports Commission. “We have enjoyed working with USAFL officials through the bid process and are looking forward to showcasing our wonderful city to the many athletes coming from all over the country. Austin is known for doing things a little unconventionally, so we know this city will embrace the great game of Australian Football.”
The Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau announced tonight at the Dublin City Council Meeting that it has secured the 2013 or 2014 United States Australian Rules Football National Championship and the 2012 49th Parallel Cup. Both events will attract participants from across the world and generate a total economic impact of nearly $2 million for the City of Dublin.
