As of early this morning, AFL Ireland Women’s on Twitter shared that a total of 15 Irishwomen have officially re-signed for the 2021 AFLW season.
This is fantastic to see and we’re sure the AFL Ireland community would be stoked with this.
We look forward to seeing the girls out on the park next year!
And make that 15 Irish Players ☘️ for @aflwomens 2021.
Very Exciting!
As @NorthAFLW have finalised their list & @GWSGIANTS have listed 25 out of a max 27 players, we see @AileenGilroy heading back to the Roos, & @duckie15 & Yvonne Bonner on the way back to the Giants 👏 pic.twitter.com/djAIRHLzgY

Footy is set to make a return to France in October.
A new league format will see two conferences bring together ten teams for the 2020/21 season.
The conferences have been split into the north and south of France.
Things are kicking off for the Budapest Bats.
The team shared a photo from training in what was just their second post on Instagram!
The Bats are the first Australian Rules Football club in Hungary. If you or any of your mates would like to get involved, follow and message them via their Instagram below or on Facebook here.
More footy is being played in Germany, this time by the Zuffenhausen Giants!
The Giants formed two intra club teams under the names Goannas and Emus, who went head-to-head a week ago.
The Goannas ended the day on top, beating the Emus 93-69.
Brisbane Lions vice-captain and 2019 AFL All Australian, Harris Andrews, was recently spotted on AFL England’s Instagram.
AFL England shared a video of Andrews just last week passing on his best wishes to the AFL community in Europe.
Check out AFL England’s website to find out how you can get involved.
The Belfast Redbacks were full of joy in their first win in the AFL Ireland 2020 season.
