Hi there boys and girls,
I’m Dipper, the NAB AFL Auskick Ambassador and it’s great to have you on the team in 2009. Last year, we had 161,159 children from all over Australia take part in this fantastic program. Now that is one HUGE team
NAB AFL Auskick is the Australian Football League’s key introductory program for primary school-aged boys and girls and their families. Through our WEEKLY COACHING PROGRAM you’ll learn the skills of the game through appropriately modified activities and rules, play football in a fun and safe environment and make plenty of new friends too!
As a registered participant you will also receive a benefits pack jammed full of awesome goodies AND you will automatically go into the draw to win a trip to Melbourne to participate in the 2009 NAB AFL Auskick Grand Final activities. How good is that?!
It’s time to get ready for another great footy season and thank you from everyone at the AFL for being a part of our team in season 2009.
Have fun!
Dipper
