AFL NSW/ACT last October held a series of athletic tests in various schools across the region where a group of 30 were selected to participate in the Stephen Coniglio Camp late last year.
The final outfit of 12 was picked from this group, with a diverse cross-section of backgrounds represented, including players who speal Arabic, Indonesian, Shona, Acholi, Samoan, and Vietnamese Dari.
The selected group hails from a range of schools including Al Noori Muslim School, Unity grammar College, Wagga Wagga Christian College, St Mary Mackillop College Wagga Wagga, Miller Technology High School, and Scots College.
