Located in the heart of Dubbo City Council, the St. Pius X Primary School AFL Auskick Centre is a thriving sports club that offers children the opportunity to get active and form lasting friendships through Australia's leading participation programme, NAB AFL Auskick.
NAB AFL Auskick introduces kids to the fundamentals of Australian Football while instilling invaluable life skills. Through game-based activities that children love, learning is disguised as playing, making it an engaging and enjoyable experience for all. One of the best things about NAB AFL Auskick is that children can start the programme in the calendar year they turn 5, regardless of their prior Aussie Rules experience.
At the St. Pius X Primary School AFL Auskick Centre, the experience is all about organised chaos and perfect fun. Sessions are designed to create more active and confident kids by providing a safe and fair play environment. Auskickers are divided into groups based on age, and there are even optional all-girls groups to cater to everyone's preferences.
On the footy field, children will not only feel comfortable but also learn and have a laugh along the way. Sessions run for just one hour per week, and there is no need for expensive kit – Auskickers can wear whatever they feel comfortable in.
In addition to the physical and social benefits, NAB AFL Auskickers at the St. Pius X Primary School AFL Auskick Centre receive a range of exclusive benefits. They receive a unique pack of footy goodies, an Auskick Junior Club Membership for the AFL club of their choice (which includes access to games), and the exciting opportunity to play halftime at AFL and AFLW elite matches alongside their footy heroes.
Parents play a critical role in creating the fun and inclusive environment at NAB AFL Auskick, and it's easy for them to get involved. Whether it's coordinating, actively participating, or simply providing encouragement, there are various ways for parents to contribute. They can reach out to their local Auskick coordinator to learn more about how they can get involved and support their child's Auskick journey.
For those looking for even more excitement, becoming a registered Auskicker offers the chance to join Team NAB AFL Auskick. Winners of this competition enjoy a Grand Final Week experience, the opportunity to present a medal to their footy heroes at the Grand Final, and $5,000 spending money for the team captain. Being part of Team NAB AFL Auskick is truly an unforgettable experience.
