About
Shepparton Auskick is a sports club located in Shepparton – Mooroopna, offering the NAB AFL Auskick programme to children in the local community. As Australia's leading participation programme, Auskick aims to help kids get active, form lasting friendships, and develop invaluable life skills through the introduction to Australian Football.
At Shepparton Auskick, learning is disguised as playing, with game-based activities that kids love. Children can start Auskick in the calendar year they turn 5, regardless of their prior experience with Aussie Rules. In addition, parents have plenty of options to participate and get involved.
The Auskick experience at Shepparton is all about having perfect fun in an organised chaos setting. The sessions run for only one hour per week, during which kids will get comfortable on the footy field while laughing and learning along the way. To ensure safe and fair play, Auskickers are divided by age, and there are optional all-girls groups available.
One of the highlights of being a Shepparton Auskicker is the exclusive benefits they receive. They get a unique pack of footy goodies, an Auskick Junior Club Membership for the AFL club of their choice, and the opportunity to play halftime at AFL and AFLW elite matches alongside their footy heroes.
Parents play a critical role in the fun and inclusive environment of Shepparton Auskick. They can get involved by coordinating, participating, or simply encouraging their children. Families are encouraged to reach out to their local Auskick coordinator to find out how they can contribute.
For those who want to take their Auskick journey to the next level, there is an opportunity to join Team NAB AFL Auskick. Registered Auskickers can enter a competition to win a spot on this prestigious team. Winners of this competition will have a Grand Final Week experience, the chance to present a medal to their footy heroes at the Grand Final, and $5,000 spending money for the team captain.
