  • AFL Draft Combine Tests Information Sheet
    AFL Draft Combine Tests Information Sheet At the end of each year the AFL holds an event called the 'Draft Combine' where hopeful AFL players are put through a series of testing. These tests include medical screening, physical performance tests such as vertical jump test, 20m sprint test and a range psychological performance tests. Vertical Jump Test This test is used to evalute an athletes lower body power. Vertical jumping and lower body power is important in AFL when jumping for marks, jumping to spoil and particularly important in ruck contests. 20m Sprint Test The 20m sprint is a test of a players acceleration and speed. Both are very important in a game of AFL for breaking away from an opponent, getting open on a lead and bursting away from stoppages. AFL Agility Test This is a specific slalom-type agility test developed for AFL, which involves running in, out and around obstacles over roughly 40 meters in total. The ability to quickly change direction is very important for AFL to be able to get clear of an opponent, or move through congestion. Yo-Yo Test The Yo-Yo Test is used to test a players aerobic endurance. This is arguably the most important phyical ascpet of AFL as players will run up to 16-18km a game (dependant upon position). In AFL you need to be aerobically fit to perform well towards to end of quarters and at the end of a match, which can be the most critical part of a game.
