AFL Mackay is gearing up for another exciting season of Junior and Youth football, with registrations now open for all players aged U9.5 to U17.5. Whether you've kicked a thousand goals or are yet to score your first, AFL offers the perfect opportunity to get active, make new friends, and develop new skills in a fun and inclusive environment.
This season also marks the introduction of the new Youth Girls U16.5 competition, an exciting addition to the league for 2025. The all-girls competition is designed to encourage girls from across the region - whether they’ve grown up around the game or are entirely new to it - to step onto the field and discover their potential.
“This new competition for U16.5's girls is a massive pool for the region,” said Competition Manager Harry Hannaford.
“We want to get girls from all angles of the region…those who have played before and can get their friends out, as well as others who just want to have a go and socialise!”
Thinking of signing on? The Mackay Sports Expo is the ideal place to learn more about the upcoming season, meet local club representatives, and find the perfect club for your young player! With clubs across the region preparing for the season kick-off at the end of March, this is the perfect time to register and join the growing AFL community.
For those looking to sign up, registrations are open for Auskick, Junior, and Youth players—both boys and girls. To find your nearest club, visit play.afl/club-finder-map.
Any enquiries about the new Youth Girls competition or other league details can be directed to the AFL Mackay Facebook page or via email at harry.hannaford@afl.com.au.
