Whats going on?
AFC has recognized the need to develop an avenue to introduce both youth and adult players, officials, administrators and coaches to American Football in a progressive manner in order to promote the sport, increase player numbers and maximize enjoyment and participation for all parties involved in the sport. This will be achieved by development and implementation of two simplified and New Zealand-ized forms of American football into high schools and universities. The two games will be known as:
•DFL Endzone, and
•DFL Flag
Both versions of the game are non-contact, low cost, support mixed gender participation and are loads and loads of fun!
If you or someone you know is interested in being involved in anyway then please contact us on americanfootballcanterbury@gmail.com.

JUNIOR FOOTBALL 2017
After an amazing 2 days at the Canterbury Junior Football Development Camp, we are proud to announce our 2017 Development Squad. It was a grueling 2 Days in the heat, but the skill set and action from these players blew us away - making it a hard decision to name a squad of 15 from a total of 43 players.

JUNIOR WOLFPACK 59 - 21 JUNIOR WARHAWKS
The morning kicked off with a bang as the Junior Wolfpack took on the Junior Warhawks in a high flying battle of touchdowns and defensive plays.
Picked from the Canterbury Junior training camp held in the Term 3 Holidays, the Junior 'Pack and Junior 'Hawks put on quite the show.
the Junior pack came out on fire with a quick touchdown to get the games rolling. Connections from Mitch Shaw to Laura Hewitson for the 'Pack proved crucial as the speedster bounced around defenders along side of 'twinkle toes' Dante Buchanan.
