AFL Queensland have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 Byron Bay AFL9s Invitational due to
the unpredictable nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty around travel and border closures.
The Byron Bay AFL9s Invitational will be back in 2022!

ABOUT THE EVENT

The Byron Bay AFL9s Invitational is a yearly event, combining the fast, fun free flowing game of AFL9s with the relaxed vibe of one of Australia’s most iconic beachside locations.

Teams from across the country will compete over two days for $16,000 worth of prize money in mixed and masters divisions.

Food vans, live music and an alfresco lounge bar complete the two day carnival which culminates in an afternoon of finals and the celebrity match

The action will take place at the Cavanbah Centre Byron Bay, a state-of-the-art multipurpose facility on Byron’s famous Ewingsdale Rd.

ABOUT AFL9s

AFL9s is the AFL’s social version of the game. It’s a fast, free-flowing game that involves 9 players on each team playing on a smaller field. Best of all, it’s ‘touch football’ with no tackling or bumping, making it suitable for people of any age or skill level. Importantly, AFL9s is easy to play, not too physically demanding and provides an environment where fun, enjoyment and safety are a priority.

AFL9s enables people of all ages and ability levels to participate in male, female or mixed competitions that fit around their busy lives and provide a social and fitness outlet.
