Port Adelaide’s strong AFLW member base has helped set an all-time AFLW club membership record of 75,568 for Season Seven.
Port Adelaide recorded an official tally of 4,782 AFLW members, ranking in the top eight of all clubs after just one season in the competition.
The AFL released club membership tallies for AFLW on Friday morning, with 17 of the 18 clubs achieving AFLW Membership records with Sydney Swans (7,757) at the top.
The 75,568 number surpasses the record of 48,712 that was set for Season Six. The Season Seven total is a 55% per cent increase, season on season.
“It has truly been a unique year – two seasons, a new CBA, four new clubs, we took matches to places we have never been before and with it came new fans, more members and more people engaged in our competition than ever before.” AFL EGM Customer and Commercial Kylie Rogers said.
“We have a great, great competition, one that is going from strength to strength and on behalf of the AFL we thank every single person that watched, attended, and bought a membership to support their club.
“The passion for AFLW on and off the field is unmatched in national women’s sport competitions across the country. This passion is a powerful tool, and we must continue to harness it for good and celebrate the difference, the uniqueness and the joy that is AFLW football.”
