Our Clubs
Australian Rules Football in the Middle East is built on strong clubs, passionate volunteers, and a shared love of the game. From the long-standing foundations of Dubai to the growing presence across the region, clubs like the Dubai Dragons, Jumeirah Bulls, Abu Dhabi Falcons, and the Riyadh Rovers have shaped a competition that is both fiercely competitive and deeply community-driven. Each club brings its own history, culture, and character, together forming the backbone of AFL Middle East and helping the game continue to grow in new cities and new communities.
