SYDNEY midfielder Tim Schmidt has retired from AFL football at the tender age of 23 to pursue a career in real estate.
Schmidt was taken with pick 29 in the 2003 national draft and played 17 games for the Swans after making his AFL debut in 2006.
Sydney chief executive Andrew Ireland said the club was 'supportive' of Schmidt's decision.
"On behalf of all at the club, we thank him for his efforts over the six years he has been with the club and wish him every success in the future," Ireland said.
South-Australian born Schmidt plans to stay in Sydney.
