The tug-of-war sport was not unknown in "down-under"; however they only joined TWIF in 1977 and since then participated in 39 international competitions. As most international events are staged in Europe, the participation for Aussies in TWIF events is always a long-long distance issue. Australia won 2 Oceanic titles in the women category and in the same category they participated in the Indoor discipline in World Games 2001 in Japan, which for them was a "nearby" event. Australia has been a host once of a TWIF event; the Oceanic Championships 1995 in Adelaide.
