RESEARCH SEARCHERS AUSKICK PROGRAM
Research Junior Football Club helps make learning to play AFL fun, safe and enjoyable for boys and girls.
Auskick is a limited-contact program, and through weekly coaching sessions, kids will learn the skills of the game in an exciting, social and safe environment.
Held every Friday afternoon from 4:00pm to 5:30pm at Research Park, our Auskick program is perfect for beginners and young footy fans wanting to build their skills in a safe, social and supportive environment.
Auskick is a non-contact AFL program that teaches kids the fundamental skills of Australian Rules Football through engaging drills and mini-games. It’s designed to boost confidence, coordination and teamwork—all while having fun with friends.
When: Fridays, 4:00pm – 5:30pm
Where: Research Park, Research VIC
Season runs: 10 sessions, ending Friday 4 July
Ages: 5–12 years
Gear: No special equipment or football boots required
Parent involvement: Encouraged and welcomed!
Most children transition from Auskick to junior footy (Under 9s) around the age of 7–8, but we welcome all young players ready to give footy a go.
