What is indoor football at The Y Leisure City?
Indoor football at The Y Leisure City is a modified, non-contact version of Australian Rules Football played indoors. It's designed to emphasize clean skills and strategic play, offering a unique and competitive way for adults to stay active.
How is indoor football different from traditional AFL?
Key differences include being played indoors on a smaller surface (over five indoor tennis courts), being non-contact, and having specific rules like no kicking off the ground, no touching the netting, and disposing of the ball within 5 seconds using an open hand. It also features continuous play kick-ins.
What are the basic rules of modified AFL indoor football at The Y?
The core rules involve eight players per team on the court with continuous rotations, no physical contact, no kicking the ball while it's on the ground, avoiding touching the surrounding netting, using an open hand instead of punching the ball, and requiring players to dispose of the ball within 5 seconds of possession. Kick-ins from goals and points are continuous.
How long is a typical indoor football match?
A typical match consists of four quarters, each lasting 8 minutes.
What equipment or attire is required to play?
Players are required to wear matching tops with numbers for easy identification.
Who is the indoor football competition at The Y Leisure City for?
The competition is specifically designed for adult male participants who are looking to develop their football skills, improve fitness, bond with teammates, gain a competitive edge, and engage in social interaction, whether in the off-season or just for fun.
How can someone register for the indoor football competition?
Individuals can register either by registering a full team or, if they are a single player, by filling out an enquiry form to be placed into a team. Further information can be obtained by calling 9401 2222 or submitting an enquiry online.
What should teams review before the indoor football season starts?
