The start of the football ("footy") season depends on the specific league:
- The Australian Football League (AFL) 2025 season starts on March 7, 2025 , and runs through to September 27, 2025, with a 23-match home-and-away season over 25 rounds followed by finals. The opening round features matches from March 6 to 9, 2025.
- The English Premier League 2025/26 season starts on the weekend of August 16-17, 2025.
So, if referring to Australian rules footy (AFL), the season starts early March 2025. For English football (soccer), the season starts mid-August 2025. If a different "footy" or league was intended, please specify for more precise dates.
