Auskick
Auskick provides boys and girls with a fun and safe Australian Football experience that serves as an introduction to a lifetime of involvement in the game.
The program is not just about introducing children to Australian Football – it activates and develops within each child the desire for a healthy lifestyle and an association with our great game.
The Avondale Heights Auskick has been in operation for 25 years and is one of the original Auskick programs. Matthew Lloyd started playing football at our Auskick Clinic.
