H-TOWN LADIES, THERE'S A NEW SPORT IN TOWN!
You may not have heard of Australian Rules Football or 'Footy' (No, it’s not Rugby!), however it's Australia’s biggest and most popular professional and amatuer sport for participation, spectatator attendance and television viewership! It has been played for more than 150 years and over the last 30 years has expanded into over 30 countries at an amateur level. In 2017, the first ever professional Women’s League(AFLW) was launched in Australia and it was a huge success!
The United States Australian Football League (USAFL) has a very healthy Australian Football competition, featuring over 45 men’s and women’s teams across the country. See more info via https://usafl.com.
In 2017 the TEXAS HEAT Womens team was formed made up of players from Texas clubs - Houston, Austin & Dallas - and we are looking to continue to recruit and build on each year. No experience is necessary, however sporting backgrounds in basketball, soccer, lacrosse, flag football, gaelic football, roller derby, kickball, rugby, touch rugby or volleyball are a plus. Training & Introductory sessions are held throughout the year between March-October so email us at info@houstonfooty.com or Register Here for more details.
