South Australia’s most talented male mid-teen footballers are facing off at the 2025 SANFL U15 Intrastate Carnival held from Tuesday July 8 to Thursday July 10.
All eight SANFL clubs field two teams across the first week of the school holidays, with boys featuring in the Metro U15 and Country U15 competitions.
A host of SANFL venues are being utilised across each of the three days, with three U17 Intrastate Matches also being held.
In an initiative introduced this year, six of the eight clubs will also host a ”whole of club” day where the Metro and Country squads play a trial match before having a tour of their SANFL club’s facilities.
Selected Metro and Country U15 matches will be live streamed exclusively on The Advertiser’s streaming platform, KommunityTV, allowing those living in regional areas or interstate the chance to watch the action live without traveling to Adelaide.
The carnival is an integral facet of SANFL’s Development Plan as it enables SANFL Clubs to observe players against quality opposition to assist with selection into their U16s Centre of Excellence for the boys.
See below for the Carnival fixture, all three days’ results will be posted on this page.
