The IAFC Flag consists of a blue flag proportioned 2:3. In the center of the
flag is a
stylized white seven-pointed star. Each point of the star represents
the regions of the
world where the sport is played: Australia (separate point
for itself as honoring the
country that started the sport, Rest of Oceania,
Anglo-America, Latin America, Europe,
Asia, and Africa. The star has the IAFC
emblem placed in the center to represent the
organization’s control of the sport
worldwide. The shade of blue corresponds with the
same color shade of the
Australian Flag. The Seven-Pointed star is another reference
to the Australian
Flag.

The IAFC was founded in 1995, at the conclusion of the Arafura Games,
in Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia. The
flag and emblem of the IAFC
(International Australian Football Council) were both
designed by myself, at the request of the IAFC
Secretary, Mr. Brian Clarke.
The emblem was formally adopted by the IAFC
in 1999, with the flag following suit
a year later.
