anton_sock Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Ok, there is a little question cause moving to Bristol and have no idea about this one: There are any australian football schools/clubs for 14 years old kids? don’t know, little league or something? A boy that is really eager to play is wondering if he can begin his training here. After fast search through the websites found this one: https://zoptamo.com/uk/s-australian_football-c-uk-coach but there are no results to display on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To The Jungle Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Bristol Dockers AFC is the only team in Bristol I think. Could check and see if they have a youth set up. However with almost no one else to play (without travelling significantly) I doubt there will be something. Personally I really like the game but has almost no active participation in the UK.

Chicken and egg argument. People won't join teams unless they can regularly play matches but teams cannot play matches regularly without lots of people taking up the sport. I believe there are a few Gaelic football clubs in Bristol. Gaelic football being quite similar to Aussie Rules. The ball is round but in terms of tactics, not at all dissimilar.
