But whats the sport of aussie rules all about . Heres abcs Nikki Battiste on this try day, friday. Quickly inside. He took it. Dont be fooled. This isnt soccer or rugby. America, let us introduce aussie rules football. Commonly called footie, australias most popular sport is now gaining ground in the u. S. Practice and collect it out. Jordan mcintyre coaches the new york mag pies, one of more than 30 teams in the United States australian football league. In american football when you finish high school, college, theres no real am stur sports afterwards. This is a nice out let for people who want to continue into their 20s and 30s. Why play as you i dont have rules football instead of american soccer or football . I just found it to be the purest sport. The most fun to play. Reporter this is how the game works. There are 1 players on an ovalshaped field, probably bigger than any other turf youve seen. Ball is egg shaped and if youre running with it, run rule is that players must bounce the ball every 15 yards. Its sort of the only sport that does that. This side of the ball hits the ground. Thats it. Not easy. Reporter there are two ways to move the ball from player to player. The first one is handball. So rather than throw the ball in rugby or overhand in american football, you hold it down here and you come through and punch the ball. Reporter the second option, give it a kick. Wow. I did it. Reporter footie allows bare bone body tackles but only between the knees and shoulders. Thats because players do not wear helmets or pads. Its a lot of knee injuries. Australian rules football because your feet sort of get wedged in the turf and you get twisted around. Reporter a goal is scored when a competitor kicks the ball between two goal posts. To popularize the sport in the u. S. , league rules require at least half the players on the field be american. Ladies. Women, you can play, too. As long as youre up for a few bruises and tackles during late night practice. Thats the great thing about footie there is a place for every body type on the field. Its such a dynamic sport with so many different kinds you have positions that anybody can play it. Reporter and these women are proving this rough and tough sport isnt only for the boys. Everybody bring it in. I love american football. And i was never allowed to play it. It just wasnt something that girls could do, but girls can do it. Reporter besides being fun, competitive and a great washingout, there might be one other aspect of the sport that keeps these players in the game. So theres a womens team there, a mens team there. How many people are dating . Thats funny. To be honest, i dont really know. I think the players keep a lot from the coach. Among the two groups. Reporter vickie batiste, abc news, new york. Nikki asking the important questions on the field. What a great piece. Yeah, it was. Can you jack, can you catch it . This is slightly different. You got to punch it though. Go, go, go.
