The Renegade Pub Football League Inc (RPFL) is a not-for-profit community organisation that operates a gender-inclusive Australian Rules Football league in Melbourne’s inner north.
We are all about grassroots footy and community spirit, and pride ourselves on providing a safe and inclusive environment for everyone. We welcome adults of any gender identity, sexual orientation, race, culture, religion, or skill-level to get involved.
The League consists of nine teams, each of which are affiliated with a local pub or live music venue. Each year we play ten rounds of Pub Footy at Victoria Park in Abbotsford. Game days are family and dog friendly events that offer three games of footy, music all day, bars and charity BBQs with vegan options. All profits from our BBQ are donated to a local charity through our Community Engagement Program.
If you would like to play footy amongst a proud arts, music and pub community please contact one of our Clubs directly. As a non-competitive social league, all our Clubs value participation and team spirit above individual sporting ability.
To keep up to date with Pub Footy follow us on Facebook and Instagram.
