AFL – Welcome to Season 2023

AFL

I would like to welcome all members of the Waverley College community to the AFL season ahead. With the growing number of boys playing AFL and the formation of the AFL Supporters’ Group, we have an extremely exciting year ahead!

I invite and encourage students, families and friends from all co-curricular activities to attend any of our games, particularly the Friday night fixtures we will be playing this year. These will be advertised in advance to increase the level of exposure to the College community.

Students are asked to walk together and in a safe fashion if travelling from Queens Park in the morning.

1sts Trial Matches

The 1st XVIII have secured two trial matches over the next two weekends. It would be great to see as many supporters there as possible.

  • Sunday, 26 March v UTS Bats @ Bat and Ball Oval, Moore Park, 10am
  • Saturday, 1 April v Cranbrook @ Sydney University Oval 1, Camperdown (TBC), 10:30am

Waverley App and Google Slides Correspondence

Season correspondence will be on the Waverley College app, so please download this if you are yet to do so:

  • Please click on co-curricular
  • Please make sure you are subscribed to AFL to receive notifications

There will be a link to a Google slides presentation where team lists, fixtures, match reports and social information will be available and updated throughout the season.

It is a very exciting time for AFL at Waverley College, with so much talent in the Program, the great coaches that have been employed, and the formation of the Supporters’ Group. I look forward to meeting many of you over the season.
