Marymede Catholic College Auskick

Marymede Catholic College Auskick is a sports club located in Melbourne that offers the NAB AFL Auskick programme. As Australia's leading participation programme, NAB AFL Auskick provides children with the opportunity to get active and develop lifelong friendships through Australian Football.

NAB AFL Auskick introduces children to the game of Australian Football while also teaching them invaluable life skills. Through fun and engaging game-based activities, learning is disguised as playing, making it enjoyable for kids of all skill levels. Children can start Auskick in the calendar year they turn 5, regardless of their previous experience with Aussie Rules.

The experience at Marymede Catholic College Auskick is described by some as organised chaos, but it is truly a fantastic and enjoyable experience for all participants. Game-based activities are designed to make kids more active and confident, while fostering a safe and fair play environment. Auskickers are divided by age, and there are optional all-girls groups available. Participants will get comfortable on the footy field while laughing and learning along the way.

Sessions run for one hour per week, and there is no need for expensive kits, as Auskickers can wear whatever they feel comfortable in.

In addition to the benefits of forming friendships and learning life skills, Marymede Catholic College Auskickers receive exclusive footy goodies through a unique pack, an Auskick Junior Club Membership for their chosen AFL club (including access to games! And the opportunity to play halftime at AFL and AFLW elite matches alongside their footy heroes.

Parents play a critical role in NAB AFL Auskick, and it is easy for them to get involved at every stage. Whether by coordinating activities, getting involved directly, or simply encouraging their child, families contribute to the fun and inclusive environment. Local Auskick coordinators can provide more information on how parents can get involved.

For registered Auskickers, there is also an opportunity to join the best Auskick team of all time, Team NAB AFL Auskick. Winners of this competition receive 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.
