USFootyNews.com is excited to be able to bring detailed statistics on USFooty games including game scores, goal kickers, the USAFL ladder and an MVP table. This information not only provides great fodder for water cooler discussion but will provide actual prizes to clubs and players that finish the season at the top of the various tables.

All of this is possible thanks to the hard work of Denmark AFL President Ian Hill and his database hosting website, TheFootyRecord.net. Hill provides a database management system that allows easy entry of standard footy results including quarter by quarter scores, goal kickers, best on ground performers, and vote getters. USFootyNews.com then gathers that database information and presents it here on our website in a mutual agreement with TheFootyRecord.net.
