What tackling and kicking rules are recommended for girls' come-and-try and school gala days?

Question

Accepted Answer

The AFL National Female Community Football Guidelines (2019) recommend modified rules at junior and youth girls' gala days, "come and try" events and school gala days, whatever the players' age:

Modified tackle only: a player in possession can be tackled by an opponent wrapping both arms around the area below the shoulders and above the knees, from the side, front or behind. A tackler from behind must not push in the back.
No dumping: no one is to be deliberately dumped or taken to the ground. If the player with the ball is taken to ground in the tackle, they receive a free kick. If the umpire thinks they dropped deliberately to win a free kick, they are penalised for holding the ball.
No bumping or slinging.
Holding: a player without the ball gets a free kick if an opponent holds them.
No kicking the ball off the ground unless accidental.

These are recommendations for gala days and "come and try" events, not rules for a regular season competition.
