International AFL Combines

Australian football clubs in recent years have been looking to widen their net and recruit athletes from overseas and from different sports. International combine events have now been held for many years, discovering athletes from other sports such as basketball, NFL and soccer backgrounds. AFL Combines are conducted in the USA, New Zealand, Europe, throughout the Pacific region, China and South Africa. These international combines use the same tests as conducted at the AFL Draft Combine. Here are some selected details of international combines that have been held since 2010.
