Why Use Sport to Calendar?

AFL and AFLW fans often juggle a long home-and-away season, finals, and — for AFLW — a schedule that runs across summer and autumn simultaneously with other commitments. Keeping track across multiple rounds without missing a game can mean constantly checking the AFL website or app. Sport to Calendar solves this by pulling those fixtures into the one tool you already use every day: your calendar.

Households that follow multiple clubs — or both the AFL and AFLW seasons at once — can select teams from both competitions and generate a single combined .ics file. Families can share a single calendar covering everyone's favourite clubs without any duplication of effort.

Because Sport to Calendar uses the open .ics standard, the fixture files work with virtually every calendar application — including Google Calendar on Android and the web, Apple Calendar on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, Microsoft Outlook on Windows, and third-party apps such as Fantastical, Calendly, and Thunderbird. There is no proprietary format and no lock-in.

The service is built to be lightweight and privacy-respecting. There are no tracker scripts beyond standard analytics, and no personal data is ever stored or sold. Simply download your .ics file and import it — nothing else is required.

Supported Australian Sports & Leagues

🏉 AFL – Australian Football League

Full home-and-away season plus finals fixtures for all 18 clubs. Events include round number, opponent, and venue.

🏉 AFLW – AFL Women's

About Sport to Calendar

Sport to Calendar (STC) is a free, independently operated web app for AFL and AFLW fans. It converts official fixture data into standard calendar files so your match schedule lives inside the same app you use for work meetings, school pickups, and every other commitment — no manual entry, no forgetting kick-off.

The service is built around the open .ics (iCalendar) standard — the same format used by every major calendar application on the planet. That means once you download your fixture file, it will work in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, Fantastical, Thunderbird, and thousands of other apps without any conversion. There is no proprietary lock-in and no ongoing subscription.

We do not sell, share, or transfer your data to any third party. For full details, please read our Privacy Policy.

2026 AFL & AFLW Season: What You Need to Know

AFL 2026 Home-and-Away Season

The 2026 AFL home-and-away season runs from March through to late August, with 18 clubs each playing 23 rounds before the finals series begins. Matches are spread across Thursday evenings, Friday nights, Saturday afternoons and evenings, and Sunday afternoons — making it easy to lose track of which game is on when, especially across different Australian time zones.

The finals series runs from early September through to Grand Final day in late September. Sport to Calendar includes all finals fixtures as they are announced, so your calendar stays current right through to the season decider at the MCG.

AFLW 2026 Season

The AFL Women's competition has grown to 18 clubs and operates on a separate schedule that runs from late summer into autumn. Because the AFLW season overlaps with pre-season AFL activity and the opening men's rounds, fans following both competitions can find themselves managing a dense calendar of fixtures across two different competitions simultaneously. Sport to Calendar lets you combine AFL and AFLW fixtures into a single .ics file, so both competitions appear in your personal calendar without any duplication of effort.

Why Fixture Times Change During the Season

The AFL releases a full fixture before the season begins, but match times and venues are routinely revised throughout the year — often for broadcast scheduling, weather, or stadium availability. This is one of the most common frustrations for fans who add matches to their calendar manually: a game gets shifted from a Saturday afternoon to a Friday evening and the calendar still shows the original time. If you use Sport to Calendar's Google Calendar integration, you can re-sync at any time to pull the latest fixture data and update your existing events automatically.

Understanding the .ics Calendar Format

The .ics file format (short for iCalendar) is an open internet standard — defined in RFC 5545 — for sharing calendar and scheduling information. It is now supported by every major calendar application on every platform. When you import an .ics file, each match becomes a proper calendar event with a title, start and end time, and location — identical to an event you would have created manually, but generated automatically from the official fixture. The format is plain text and not tied to any one app or service, so it works across Google, Apple, Microsoft, and hundreds of other calendar tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add AFL fixtures to Google Calendar?

There are two ways. The quickest is to sign in with Google on the AFL or AFLW fixture page — Sport to Calendar will add events directly to your Google Calendar without you needing to download or import anything. If you prefer not to sign in, select your teams, download the .ics file, then open Google Calendar on the web, click the + next to "Other calendars," choose Import, and select the file. All selected matches will appear as calendar events within seconds.

Is Sport to Calendar free to use?

Yes, entirely free. There are no subscriptions, no premium tiers, and no hidden charges. Downloading .ics files requires no account at all. The Google sign-in feature is also free; it simply uses your existing Google account to write events to your calendar and requires no payment information.

Can I add AFL fixtures to Apple Calendar or Outlook?

Yes. Download the .ics file from Sport to Calendar and import it into Apple Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, or any other application that supports the .ics format. On iPhone and iPad, tapping the downloaded file will prompt iOS to add the events to your calendar automatically. On a Mac, double-clicking the file opens Apple Calendar and asks which calendar to import into. In Outlook, use File → Open & Export → Import/Export and choose the iCalendar option.

Which Australian sports leagues are supported?

Sport to Calendar currently supports the AFL (Australian Football League) and AFLW (AFL Women's). Both competitions include the full home-and-away season and finals series for all 18 clubs. You can download fixtures for one competition or combine both into a single calendar file. Additional competitions may be added in future seasons.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required to use Sport to Calendar. You can browse leagues, select teams, and download .ics calendar files entirely without registering. The only optional sign-in is via Google, and that is only needed if you want to add or manage fixture events directly in your Google Calendar without downloading a file.

What information is included in each calendar event?

Each event includes the round number, the full names of both competing teams, the venue or stadium name, the scheduled date, and the local start time. For example, an event might read "Round 5 — Richmond v Collingwood, MCG" with a start time of 7:25 PM AEST. This gives you all the information you need at a glance from your calendar's week or day view without needing to open a separate app.

What happens when the AFL changes a fixture time or venue?

The AFL regularly revises fixture times and venues throughout the season. If you used the Google Calendar integration, you can revisit Sport to Calendar and update your events at any time to reflect the latest fixture. If you imported a .ics file, download a fresh file and import it again — most calendar apps will either update existing events or add new ones, depending on the app. We recommend re-downloading a fresh file at the start of each month or whenever you hear that a fixture has changed.

Can I select fixtures for just my favourite team rather than the whole league?

Yes. On the AFL or AFLW fixture page, you can choose to add all matches for the entire competition, or filter down to only the games involving one or more specific clubs. For example, a Geelong supporter can select only Geelong Cats fixtures, and the resulting .ics file will contain only matches where Geelong is playing. You can also select multiple teams — useful for households that follow more than one club.

Does Sport to Calendar work on Android?

Yes. Sport to Calendar is a web app that works in any modern mobile or desktop browser. On Android, the most common approach is to download the .ics file and import it into Google Calendar, which is the default calendar app on most Android devices. You can also use the Google sign-in feature directly in Chrome on Android to add events to your Google Calendar without downloading a file.

Is my data private? Does Sport to Calendar share my information?

Sport to Calendar does not sell, share, or transfer personal data to any third party. If you use the Google sign-in feature, the app uses your Google account only to write calendar events on your behalf. No data is stored by Sport to Calendar beyond what is necessary to provide the service. Full details are available in our Privacy Policy.
