The Allies squad brings together elite Under-18 footballers from New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory, Queensland, and Tasmania. Each year, this talented group competes against rival teams Vic Metro, Vic Country, Western Australia, and South Australia at the prestigious Marsh AFL National Championships.
The Allies famously achieved their first-ever championship victory in 2023, with several players from that standout group drafted early into the AFL.
After a tough 2024 campaign, finishing second-last with only one win, the Allies are determined to bounce back strongly in 2025.
This renewed optimism is supported by the inclusion of ten talented AFL NSW/ACT athletes:
- Five representatives from the Sydney Swans Academy
- Three from the GWS GIANTS Academy
- Two from the Murray Bushrangers
The first game for the Allies is scheduled for 12pm on 1 June, at Blacktown International Sports Park against South Australia.
