AFL Victoria
AFL Victoria has developed an adapted version of Australian Rules football to allow Victorians with blindness and low vision to play our great game.
The game has been developed to allow males and females, of all levels of vision, to play the game together in a safe and welcoming environment.
Currently games are run for those 14 years of age and older, however AFL Victoria are looking into introducing junior programs.
See below for ALF Blind Footy Clinic dates 2021.
For more details about how the game is played, please refer to rules here - http://websites.sportstg.com/assoc_page.cgi?c=0-12142-0-0-0&sID=410096
