The Tasmania Football Club, nicknamed the Devils, is a professional Australian rules football club set to compete in the Australian Football League (AFL) from the 2028 season and the AFL Women's (AFLW) from an unspecified date.[5][6] The club will be based in Tasmania, with matches to be played across the state. Both University of Tasmania Stadium in Launceston and Blundstone Arena in Hobart will host games initially, with the southern matches moving to the future Macquarie Point Stadium upon its construction.[7]
In May 2023, Tasmania secured an AFL licence following a unanimous vote of AFL club presidents.[7] The club will likely first compete in the Victorian Football League, starting in either 2025 or 2026.[8]
