Chances are you may not have come across many of the skills needed to play Aussie Rules - don't worry! Many of them are relatively straightforward to get to grips with, although mastering them obviously takes a lot longer!

In this section you will find information on some of the core skills you will need during a game along with descriptions of how to do them. Wherever possible we have also included videos from the Auskick programme which, whilst originally produced for juniors are all incredibly useful for those new to the game.

Obviously, just about all of the skill practices shared here involve the use of a football. If you don't have access to one already you are able to purchase one by visiting the AFL Britain online shop (see the link at the top of every page).
