AFL Asia are excited to announce that the Asian Championships are locked in again for 2025! Our premier, annual tournament will be held on Saturday August 30, 2025, at the Thai Polo and Equestrian Club in Chon Buri, Thailand.
This year marks the third consecutive year that AFL Asia’s Asian Championships have been hosted at the venue, with the team in Chon Buri well equipped to put on the biggest and best Australian Football show in Asia. AFL Asia is ambitious about breaking attendance records and welcoming more teams and players than ever before as we continue to nurture a great relationship with the venue.
The Thailand Tigers hosted AFL Asia’s showcase event magnificently in 2024 and have carried over their rights to the event for a third and final time in 2025. As the event continues to grow, the Thai Polo and Equestrian Club in Chon Buri has the capacity to host four full-size Australian Rules Football grounds, promising to service as much football for each player and team as possible.
Thailand Tigers Football Club President, Jake McIntosh, has expressed his delight at the opportunity to once again play host to AFL Asia teams.
“The Thailand Tigers are really excited once again to partner with the Advance Australia Council and AFL Asia to host the 2025 Asian Championships. We welcome teams from across Asia to Chon Buri as we aim to hold an even bigger and better event than last year. We will work closely with AFL Asia to ensure we give all competing teams a fantastic day of football.”
Pending team submissions, initial plans will look to schedule four to five divisions across the day, including three men’s divisions and two women’s division.
Keep your eyes peeled for more information.
The PNG Muruks and the Singapore Wombats are the reigning champions in the men’s and women’s’ premier divisions respectively, while Singapore also reigned in the men’s Division 2 and Japan took home the title in the men’s Division 3.
