Australian rules football in New South Wales dates back to 1866 though organised competition has only been continuous since the 1880s. Several regions have developed into strongholds of Australian football, including Broken Hill near South Australia, and the Riverina and the South Coast near Victoria. In other, more populous areas of New South Wales, including Sydney, rugby football and soccer has maintained a higher profile due mainly to a strong and long standing cultural rivalry with Victoria.
