Free program for children to enjoy first taste of AFL

AFL Auskick (five to eight-year-olds) and AFL Superkick (nine to 12-year-olds) will be hosting free six-week programs from July 25 to August 29, 4.45-5.45pm, every Thursday at Mona Park, Auburn, to give your child a taste of the game.

Supported by the GWS Giants, the programs are suited for children who have played AFL as well as children who are interested in trying AFL for the very first time.
“Our programs are delivered in a fun and inclusive way and have a heavy focus on establishing a connected community,” the AFL’s Marianna Konidaris said.
“In addition to this, we aim to deliver cultural activities to celebrate the multiculturalism that exists within the Cumberland community.
“Non-contact and beginner-friendly, it’s a fantastic opportunity for your child to make new friends, have fun in the activities and mini games, learn skills through play and take home an Auskick or Superkick pack.”
