About this listen
In this episode, we examine Australia's ambitious plan to dominate Olympic flag football. With the sport debuting at LA2028, Australia isn't just participating—they're targeting gold. The NFL's expanding Australian presence coincides with American Football Australia's strategic development system, creating junior pathways and national championships. Most fascinating is their "Hit List" approach, targeting NRL stars like Reece Walsh while former Rugby standout Quade Cooper already transitions to the sport. With academic research partnerships and government backing, Australia demonstrates how emerging Olympic sports can rapidly develop competitive advantage through systematic planning and cross-code recruitment.
