Villanova has a very strong association with the Coorparoo Junior Australian Football Club. As such, all AFL training is conducted at the Coorparoo JAFC grounds. Sessions occur in the mornings and afternoons with transport provided to/from the College.

AIC AFL is played in Term 1. All AFL trials are held in the previous year during Term 4. Students who are new to the College will be invited to the AFL trials held in Term 4 (that is, the year before they officially commence). All information regarding trials will be posted on the Locker Room Overview page early Term 4. New families will receive email communication from the College regarding these trials.

AIC AFL is now offered to all students from Year 5-12. The divisions are set out below.
