大阪ディンゴーズは多分、日本で唯一の国籍的にミックスされてるチームです。2007年からはJAFLのトップリーグへの参加が決定し、大阪ディンゴーズ・ひいては大阪の、そして日本のオージーフットボールの更なる躍進の年になりそうです。
The Osaka Dingoes is an Australian
Football League (AFL) team based in Osaka. It was
formed in 1991 by a group of passionate expats, trying
to promote the game throughout Japan. Initially, matches
were played against each other, eventually progressing
to playing teams from Tokyo. Although the Osaka Dingoes
was originally formed by expats, today, it boasts
an even spread of members from Japan and Australia,
as well as other foreign countries. The original club
guernsey was based on the Essendon Bombers. The current
one is based on the Darwin Buffaloes and is sky blue
on navy blue.
Since 2003, the Osaka Dingoes have competed in the
Japan Cup (formerly known as the Narita Cup), an annual
round robin tournament pitting teams from throughout
Japan and Australia. As these events became more regular,
the Osaka Dingoes decided to join the Japan Australian
Football League (Japan AFL) in 2007, finishing second
in their first season.
In 2006, Mr Genki Tanaka, from the Osaka Dingoes
won a scholarship with Box Hill North Football Club,
in Melbourne. The club and sport in general are both
growing.
