Sherrin Launches "Puutpulpa" Game Ball to Commemorate AFLW

Sherrin, Australia's iconic football brand and the Official Game Ball of the AFL, proudly unveils "Puutpulpa", a culturally rich game ball created exclusively for the 2025 AFLW Indigenous Round. This limited-edition release embodies cultural storytelling, athletic excellence, and a commitment to celebrating First Nations heritage on the national stage.

Honouring Indigenous Art and Heritage

The Puutpulpa design was brought to life by Emma MacNeill, a Brisbane-based artist and proud YamatjiMartu woman. "Puutpulpa" translates to football in Martu Wangka, with the ball's artwork symbolising journey, connection, and resilience. The circular motifs represent community and paths walked by ancestors, while the "U" symbols reflect the presence of grandmothers and daughters, paying tribute to the enduring influence of women in sport.

Cultural Integration Across the League

Puutpulpa will be used in all matches played during Rounds 3 and 4 of the AFLW 2025 season, aligning with the league's broader cultural recognition initiatives. Six AFLW clubs will take on their traditional place names, such as Walyalup (Fremantle) and Narrm (Melbourne), further deepening the connection between country, culture, and competition.

The AFLW Indigenous Round will also feature Indigenous-designed guernseys, ceremonial acknowledgements, and community-led initiatives that highlight the importance of heritage and inclusivity within elite women's sport.

More Than a Ball, A Cultural Statement

The Puutpulpa ball is more than a match tool, it's a canvas that carries the voices of women past, present, and future. It represents hope, connection, and pride for both players and communities. For those looking to celebrate this historic moment or add a cultural icon to their personal collection, team footballs and special edition balls will be available online.

Fans can now explore the new Puutpulpa and other commemorative items through Sherrin's shop AFL [https://www.sherrin.com.au/game-balls/afl-game-balls.html] section, ideal for collectors, fans, or anyone seeking a deeper connection to the game.

Available Now from Australia's Official Online Football Store

As excitement builds, Puutpulpa and a full range of Indigenous Round merchandise are now available via Sherrin's online football store. Whether you're shopping for junior players, professional gear, or one-of-a-kind collector items, Sherrin's platform remains the premier destination to shop football Australia wide.
