ABOUT US
Auskick is an introductory program to Australian Rules Football teaching the basic skills of the game which include kicking, marking, handball, picking up, bouncing, evasion and ruck work. Along with learning the basic skills, kids get to experience fun games and play a modified version of AFL.
AFL Auskick is NON CONTACT which makes it suitable for GIRLS and BOYS from the ages of 4 to 12 years old to participate (or 4yo kinder to grade 6). Not only will the kids have fun, but parents are encouraged to get involved and have just as much fun. Auskick is runs for 19 weeks, every Friday with each session going for up to 1.5 hours.
