South Australian National Football League, also known as SANFL, is a privately owned organization headquartered in Australia. Founded in 1877, the organization employs approximately 190 individuals and reported $10.5M in revenue as of 2023. As a tier 3 media tech buyer, the SANFL operates as South Australia's governing body for Australian rules football, focusing on contact sports. Originally formed as the South Australian Football Association on 30 April 1877, it stands as the oldest surviving football league of any code in Australia and the 7th oldest club football league globally.
On March 16, 2026, the VFL/W confirmed Brett Gourley and Jackson Kornberg as State Team coaches for this year's State Games against SANFL; Gourley will continue to lead the VFLW team after steering the side to victory in its inaugural representative match. Previously, on March 10, Rob Kerin stepped down as SANFL reported a strong financial result, enabling continued investment in game development, increased funding for SANFL Clubs, and a significant contribution to the High Performance Centre at West Lakes. Earlier, on March 5, the 2026 AAMI Talent League Boys graduates moved into the Hostplus SANFL League, reflecting SANFL clubs' investment in local players. On February 12, SANFL announced a new multi-year partnership with Bendigo Bank, appointing it as SANFL’s official banking partner and naming rights partner of the SANFL Volunteer of the Year Award from 2026, supporting grassroots football and volunteers. This followed the finalization of the 2026 SA U16 girls squad on February 10, a 30-player team coached by Bek McMahon, set to defend its AFLW National Championship in April.
