Australian rules football in Tasmania (known locally as "football"), has been played since the late 1870s and draws the largest audience for a football code in the state. While support for the Australian Football League competition remains in the state, and population growth has exceeded the national average, Australian rules football at the grassroots has been in freefall since 2006. The number of participants halved during the 2000s and has not recovered since. Once a heartland of the sport and the strongest state for the sport in the country, its participation rate per capita has dropped below the national average and is now similar to the sport in the Australian Capital Territory and only marginally higher than that of Australian rules football in New South Wales and in Queensland.
