About this resource

This website comprises ten units of work for teachers of students in Years 11 and 12. The units, which have been developed for the Australian Football League by Curriculum Corporation, cover five learning areas: Media Studies, Business Studies, Mathematics, Health and Physical Education, and English.


There are two units for each learning area and all have been mapped to relevant State and Territory curriculum outcomes. Each unit includes detailed Teacher Notes and Student Worksheets that can be downloaded as PDF files. A selection of still images and videos that support the units can be found in the Resources section.


The units of work are designed not just for those familiar with our great Australian game, but for any teacher wishing to engage students – both male and female – in authentic learning. A look at the unit summaries will provide an idea of the content and help you make the best choice.
