In The classroom

Mad for Footy was founded in the classroom to fulfil a need for inclusion and acceptance. Rolla Games co-founder Matt, a primary school teacher himself, developed the game as a way to unite his students and generate engagement, particularly from those who hadn't been exposed to Australian Rules Football previously. It allows students to learn the basic rules of footy and understand how the game is played, all while having heaps of fun in a format that is tailored to suit every skill level and ability.

Positive Social Impacts

"I started my career at a foundation school where students didn't have established friendship groups and came from a variety of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. Although most of my students had never been exposed to AFL, I decided to introduce the game into my classroom and the results were overwhelmingly positive. It didn't take long before students from all year levels started coming to my class at lunchtimes to play the game together. Girls were playing the boys and older students were helping their younger friends. The dedicated footy fans in the group were helping to teach the rules to those new to the game. The positive impacts the game has had on my students, particularly those at-risk, is beyond anything I could have imagined."
