The 2026–27 season commences on September 5 at our home ground, Flora Wylie Park, with an open training session and scrimmage.

We are building towards the USAFL Nationals in Sarasota in mid-October. Entering our eighth season, the Tiger Sharks are stronger and hungrier than ever—and looking forward to adding more silverware to the trophy cabinet.
