Extending far and wide across the country, NAB’s Auskickin’ Around Australia Tour has already set up camp in Alice Springs, Townsville, Emerald, Wagga, Nowra, Clare, Mt Barker, Ballarat and Kyabram. The tour concludes in Tasmania on 2 September when kids in Burnie get their opportunity to participate in the fun and excitement of the tour.
NAB’s 150th Auskickin’ Around Australia Tour is a fantastic new initiative providing kids with the opportunity to get up close and personal with their favourite past and present AFL stars. Footy drills and fun activities, learning about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle and how they can be smart with their savings, are the aim of the day.
Open to children of all ages, NAB’s 150th Auskickin’ Tour has been established to provide kids with access to free footy activities with some of the games greatest players.
These events provide a unique opportunity for children to spend intimate time with their heroes. They are given an insight into life as an AFL footballer- what the coach says at halftime, how they prepare for big games, deal with sports injuries, and what nutritional advice they follow to become champion players just like Stephen and Mark.
Northern Bullants General Manager Garry O’Sullivan said the NAB 150th Auskickin’ Tour is a fantastic opportunity for kids to get up close and personal with some past and present stars of AFL.
“The Bullants are very pleased to be involved with NAB and to have the NAB Auskickin’ Tour as a curtain-raiser to our match is fantastic. It is such a great opportunity for the kids and with our big match afterwards we’re expecting a huge crowd,” Garry O’Sullivan said.
The event will be held on Saturday 23 August from 10:00am – 12:00pm at Preston City Oval, Cramer Street Preston. The Clinic will occur prior to the Bullants clash with reigning VFL Premiers Geelong. All participants are urged to stay after the clinic and support the Northern Bullants.
