 Projects: SANFL Boundary Analysis
The South Australian National Football League (SANFL) approached Professor Graeme Hugo in early 1996 with the problem of re-designing the club boundaries to reflect changes in the age structure of the population.
The SANFL consists of nine clubs that are allocated areas of Metropolitan Adelaide and Country South Australia from which they can recruit and develop junior football talent.The clubs are primarily interested in the junior football talent (aged 0 to 19 years) within each of their allocated zones.
To foster and develop the game, and to identify potential league footballers, most clubs actively participate in school football programs and conduct junior coaching clinics.
