About
Eden Auskick Centre is a sports club located in the Bega Valley Shire Council, offering the NAB AFL Auskick programme. As Australia's leading participation programme, Auskick aims to get kids active and help them form lasting friendships while introducing them to Australian Football and teaching invaluable life skills.
At Eden Auskick Centre, learning is disguised as playing through game-based activities that kids love. Children can start Auskick in the calendar year they turn 5, regardless of prior Aussie Rules experience. Parents also have plenty of options to participate, making it a family-friendly programme.
The Auskick experience at Eden Auskick Centre is described as “organised chaos” that is perfect fun. With the belief that game-based activities make for more active and confident children, Auskickers are divided by age and there are optional all-girls groups to ensure safe and fair play. During the sessions, kids will get comfortable on the footy field while laughing and learning along the way. The sessions run for only one hour per week, and there's no need for expensive kit - Auskickers can wear whatever they feel comfortable in.
Aside from the benefits of friendships, family time, and significant life skills, NAB AFL Auskickers at Eden Auskick Centre also receive exclusive footy goodies in a unique pack, an Auskick Junior Club Membership for the AFL club of their choice (including access to games), and the opportunity to play halftime at AFL and AFLW elite matches alongside their footy heroes.
Parents are encouraged to get involved in NAB AFL Auskick, whether it's through coordinating, actively participating, or simply encouraging their children. The role of families is considered critical in creating a fun and inclusive environment at Eden Auskick Centre. Local Auskick coordinators are available to provide more information on how parents can get involved.
As a registered Auskicker at Eden Auskick Centre, there is also the exciting opportunity to join Team NAB AFL Auskick. Winners in this competition get a Grand Final Week experience, a chance to present a medal to their footy heroes at the Grand Final, and $5,000 in spending money for the team captain.
