Australian football officially launched in 1859 when the Melbourne Football Club was founded in Melbourne, setting the rules for the first matches. In 1897, Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon, Geelong, Melbourne, and St Kilda joined, evolving into the Victorian Football League. Building on this, the Australian Football League (AFL) was launched in 1989, and now there are 18 teams active across Australia.
