Australian Rules Football is played by three clubs in Iceland, with the Andspyrnusamband Íslands (Icelandic Australian Football League - IceAFL) being the main league and controlling body for the sport. The IceAFL was founded in 2009, and regular competition commenced in 2010. The league is the world's most northerly Australian Rules Football league.〔(Iceland's Fosters Premiership kicks off this weekend ).〕 == History == Australian rules football has been played in Iceland since 20 May 2009, when Friðgeir Torfi Ásgeirsson, who had played in the Danish Australian Football League, placed an ad in a local newspaper and put up flyers at pubs and schools around Reykjavik looking for players.〔(AFL spreads its wings thanks to ex-pat efforts ).〕 A group of seven people gathered that afternoon at the far end of the Reykjavik Pond. Before the first club was founded in Iceland, a national team, named the Icelandic Ravens, had been assembled for the 2009 EU Cup. The first teams were founded in April 2010 and are known as the Dragons, Eagles and Bulls. The team names come from Iceland's coat of arms, leaving the Giant as the only symbol unaccounted for. The current (2015) president is Friðgeir Torfi Ásgeirsson, the cashier is Eyjólfur Bjarni Sigurjónnson, and the general manager is Sölvi Fannar Sigmarsson.
