The AFL Pre-season Draft is the drafting of uncontracted players to teams in the Australian Football League.

The draft is conducted after the National AFL Draft and before the start of the next AFL season.

It is conducted at the same time as the AFL rookie draft.

The pre-season draft is a place for any uncontracted players to nominate that missed the AFL Draft or who were delisted after the main draft.

It was first held in 1989 and has diminishing greatly in its importance - the last five years have only averaged 8 selections per year, compared to over 50 in each of the first five years.

It is considered that the pre-season draft only still exists to protect the league from writs for restraint-of-trade.
