NAB AFL Auskick
Kickstart a love of the game
When kids are ready to play, NAB AFL Auskick is the perfect way to start. As Australia’s leading football participation program, Auskick introduces children to the fun and skills of Australian Rules Football in a safe, inclusive and action-packed environment.
In WA, Auskick is open to all children from Pre-Primary to Year 2. In some regional areas, older children can also register for Auskick due to distance and population considerations.
Beyond friendships, family time, and essential life skills, Auskickers also enjoy exclusive experiences, including a special pack of footy goodies, a Junior Club Membership for your favourite AFL team (with game access!), and the unforgettable chance to play halftime at AFL and AFLW matches alongside their heroes.
Footy is for all, and Auskick gives girls every opportunity to learn the game in a fun, inclusive environment, with girls-only groups now available.
