Event Navigation
The Australian Football Association Japan (AFL JAPAN) is hosting Australia Sports Day which would be held at Komazawa Olympic Park on Wednesday 25 January. Australia Sports Day is an event where you can enjoy three of Australia’s most popular sports – Australian football, cricket and netball – all at the same time.
These sports have professional leagues in Australia and attract large crowds, but are not as well known in Japan. The three organisations have cooperated to organise the event in the hope that people can enjoy Australia’s most popular sport in a casual way. Entry, watching and experiencing the sport are all free, so please feel free to come along to the venue.
No pre-registration is required to attend.
Date: 25 February (Saturday)
Venue: Komazawa Olympic Park Auxiliary Stadium
