NEW AFL 9’s structure for interschool sport

This term we have introduced the new AFL 9’s structure for interschool sport. This implementation of this new format of AFL 9's is a directive from SSV at Primary School level. This modified sport is played and umpired very different to that played on the weekend in local competitions.
