The Basics
Here is what you need to know to get started with Australian Rules Football
Field
Played on an oval field with 18 players a side
Duration
The game consists of four 20-minute quarters
Skills
The ball can be moved by kicking or by punching the ball, called a handpass
Scoring
To score a “goal” (6 points) the ball must be kicked through the middle posts. If the ball hits the post or goes between the outer posts it is a “behind” (1 point)
Possession​
If a kicked ball is caught in the air after travelling 10 meters, it is called a “mark”, and the catching player gets a free kick
