The Australian Football League (AFL & AFLW) is the only fully professional men's & women's competition of Australian rules football. The first team, Melbourne, was founded in 1858 and is still playing today.

The AFL currently consists of 18 men's teams spread over six Australian states. In 2021 matches were played in all states, plus the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory, as well as in New Zealand and China. The AFL season currently consists of a 23 round season for the men, which runs during the Australian winter, March to September. The AFLW competition consists of just 8 rounds and currently 14 clubs play mostly in summer, early January to March.

In the men's competition the top eight teams play off in a four-round finals series, finishing with the AFL Grand Final, which is normally held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground each year in front of 95,000 people. The Grand Final winners are called the "Premiership Team". The current Premiers are the Melbourne Demons.
