Tamworth Australian Football League

The Tamworth Australian Football League is an Australian rules football competition in the Tamworth and New England region of New South Wales, Australia. The league began as a "pub competition" in Tamworth in 1997, with four 12-a-side teams, but has since grown to a regional league with seven teams based in six towns.

Prior to the establishment of the Tamworth AFL, there had been two other leagues in the area, the New England AFL, which folded after the 1984 season - and the North West AFL, which folded after the 1993 season.
