League Details
Join the League
When a small group of Bay Area footy followers transformed the
Santa Cruz 'Roos into the Golden Gate Australian Football League in
early 2002, they had high hopes for the new league. The GGAFL enters
its eigth season in 2009 with a solid player base, consistent
performances at a national level, four solid clubs, and
continued enthusiasm for the future.But what keeps us going each year is new blood. If you're reading this, you already have an interest in Aussie Rules Football in the Bay Area. Why not follow through with a note to the league and let us know who you are, or join us. We welcome players of all levels of experience. Some of our best players today are locals who kicked a footy for the first time just a few years ago. Several transplanted Aussies are already part of the league as well. So if you're here from down under or here from birth, come have a run with us.
If you don't want to play but are interested in helping to run our league or coming to watch games we would slao like to hear from you. Whoever you are, we hope to see you at the footy.
