2006 London Youth Games

Our Aussie Rulers
Reproduced from the Official Program

"England may have the upper hand in the cricket (for now!), but the Aussies certainly know a thing or two about sport. Aussie Rules is a national obsession down under - so if you're keen to see what all the fuss is about, why not take a stroll over to the Lodge Pitch during a break in your sports and check out a game.

Huge thanks to the organisers behind this demo: Aussie Rules UK. Go to www.aussierulesuk.com for more info."

Aussie Rules was again included as a demonstration sport in the London Youth Games on Sunday, 9 July 2006. The 4 competing teams were the Carshalton Swans, LNS Lions, Hackney Hawks and Downside Dockers.

Aussie Rules UK would like to thank the London Youth Games, Sport England and the participating schools for their support of the event.
