We've been working to boost exposure of our game and team with local media in the DC. We're also trying hard to pump our social media, and we could really use support from footy supporters and the footy media in general to give us a boost.

We're doing our best to promote the game to locals - with zero help from the AFL.

2016 Euro Cup currently streamed here
The Croatian Knights have won the Mens Division at the 2016 9 a side Euro Cup from a field of 15 Countries. They defeated the Irish Warriors in the Final.This repeated their Euro Cup success in 2008, and was a great effort to beat the Irish who are always strong Internationally in our game.
This is a reflection of the steady growth in Croatia of our game, which for 2016 had 6 clubs up from the 4 in 2014 plus in addition a Womens Club. was formed last year.

Croatia has done very well in a short period of time.

Participation of Aussie Rules internationally was 132,890 this year . Does anyone know what that was up on last year?
Do not know the figures BUT it is likely that the AFL is including Kiwikick numbers from NZ, and Juniors from elsewhere.
AFL Europe a couple of years back published that they had 5,000 registered official players and were aiming for 10,000, and they do an official census each year, and they were the biggest group under an AFL banner.
We can see India and China getting big numbers eventually if the expansion is properly structered.
AFL House should state how many Auskickers or similar are included in the figure like they do for Australian participation.
Change of topic--
The 2014 International Cup had 18 mens teams and 7 Womens teams.
In a recent Interview an International country who are hoping to get to the 2017 Cup revealed that so far 24 countries had nominated for 2017. No breakdown was given whether that was Mens teams only.

Should be an interesting IC17. Wondering if countries can close the gap on PNG NZ and Ireland and if Canada can defend the women's .I read that at the USAFL internationals in October next year they want to invite a women's Australian team to play in a division after IC17.
Croatia and Denmark are already more or less at Irelands level

At this stage for IC17 the estimate for the number of teams are 20 men's and 10 women's .That is if the teams nominated can make it

If it works out that way, that's a decent turn out.
The AFL, or whoever organises the fixture for the IC, need to start getting imaginative because of the number of teams. The early lightning rounds probably remains the best way to sort the teams into divisions (even if it often involves the better teams flogging the weaker teams).
With 20 teams, do we jump to five groupings of four teams straight after the preliminary lightning rounds? Or do we need to allow more teams the opportunity to finish top four? Traditionally, Ireland, NZ and PNG have monopolised the top 3 spots, but 4th spot has been wide open each IC.
I personally think, since the teams all tend to play friendlies in the lead-up, they should use games of that sort as well as previous placings, to do seedings right from the start of the actual tournament.
