Australia's favorite sport: Aussie Football
Learn about Aussie Football, the hottest sport that can help you and your kids integrate better into local life!
IT'S NOT JUST A SPORT, IT'S A BRIDGE TO BUILD A COMMON LANGUAGE BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR CHILD.
Australian football can be more than just a sport, it’s a cultural symbol that kids love. Australian football has a soccer-like passing game, a rugby-like rushing game and a bit of American football’s hard hitting game.
Knowing this, you’ll be able to keep up with your child when they’re talking about the game!
Australian football is a fast-paced game where two teams of 18 players each try to score by kicking the ball through four goalposts.
If you kick it through the middle posts, you get six points, but through the outer ones, it’s just one! Players can run with the ball but must bounce it every 15 meters, and tackles are allowed, but only below the shoulders.
COME AND SEE WITH YOUR CHILD WHO CAN PUT THE BALL IN THE GOAL!
Now it’s your turn to take the field! Grab the mouse with your child and send the ball in to see who is the star scorer of the day. Let you and your child experience the fun of Australian football together in the game.
