I've never played before, can I play?
Absolutely.
9 out of 10 Montreal Angels players have never played Aussie Rules football when they join our team.
We take players of all fitness levels and all skill levels. Aussie Rules is also a sport that needs all shapes and sizes, tall and small, fast and slow, super fit or just starting out, there's always a place for you.
As a new and unique sport to Canada and Quebec we expect that Aussie Rules will be foreign almost everyone. Our coaching staff has been developing players from scratch since we started and the results speak for themselves. The Montreal Angels have had three players play for Team Canada at the 2011 International Cup and a further three represent Team Canada in its development squad.
We don't expect everyone to reach the heights of national team selection and many of our players are just out to have fun. But whatever your goals, be it fitness, fun or the dream to one day play for Canada - we can make it happen.
