By suburb
Which code is the winter code where you are
Australian rules is the winter game in Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory. Rugby league is the winter game in New South Wales and Queensland. The border between them has a name — the Barassi Line — and it is why a national list of football clubs is really a list from two different countries, filed together.
Almost everything on this page is a community or junior club playing out of a council oval or a recreation reserve, not one of the professional sides. That is the point: the AFL is easy to find, and your local under-12s are not.
How this list was assembled
- One Overpass query per state, so a club's state is known by construction and never inferred.
- Anything that is ground rather than an organisation — a pitch, a court, a municipal pool — is dropped. 6,655 records did not survive that test.
- Records sharing a name within 250 m are merged as one venue, keeping the richer copy — 248 here.
- Each club is matched to the nearest named suburb inside its own state, capped by settlement size, or left unassigned.
- Nothing is ranked, weighted or promoted. No club can pay to move.
region = the query it came from (certain) suburb = nearest named place, same region, within cap rank = none

Questions people actually ask
- How many australian rules football are there in Australia?
- 193 are recorded in OpenStreetMap as of 2026-07-29, spread across 6 states and territories. That is what the open map knows, not a census — a club nobody has added yet does not appear.
- Do these Australian rules clubs pay to be listed here?
- No. Sideline takes no money from any club and has no ranking to sell. Listings are ordered alphabetically or by distance, never by payment.
- Why do some entries have no phone number or website?
- 42 of the 193 have a website on record. The rest simply have not had one added to OpenStreetMap. A blank field here always means "not recorded", never "none" — and anyone can fix it at the source in about two minutes.
