It acts as an umbrella to several competitions beneath it. These competitions are Seniors First Grade, Seniors Second Grade, Thirds, Fourths and a Rising Stars League. A women's league, the Australian Capital Territory Women's Australian Football League operates separately though most AFL Canberra clubs also field women's teams.

The competition is technically Canberra's division of the Australian Capital Territory Australian Football League.

History

edit
 
Premiers of the ANF 1927
 
Federal Football team, 1926 Federal Territory premiers.

The league was founded as the Federal Territory Australian Rules Football League in 1924 with founding members Acton and Queanbeyan.[1] The following year, the premiership was contested by 4 clubs including Canberra, Federal and Duntroon.[2] By 1926 the competition had gained popularity and was contested by 5 clubs.[1]

AFL Canberra was once a very popular local league, however since the introduction of the Swans and matches featuring AFL clubs being played at Manuka Oval, the league's home ground, and the growth of local rugby union, rugby league and association football competitions, AFL Canberra has experienced the loss of clubs and spectator support.

In November 2010 the five AFL Canberra Premier Division clubs merged with the Premier Division clubs of the Queensland Australian Football League to form the North East Australian Football League.[3] From 2011 onwards, the AFL Canberra Premier Division together with the reserve sides from the Sydney Swans and Greater Western Sydney Giants would form the NEAFL Eastern Conference. However the NEAFL was later dissolved due primarily to the COVID pandemic and associated financial pressures.
