KickStart Championships for girls

About the KickStart Program

The KickStart program uses Australian football as a vehicle for education, employment, health and participation outcomes for Indigenous people.

The KickStart program and Championships provide further development opportunities for other parts of the football industry such as umpiring, coaching and administration with local Indigenous people engaged in these leadership positions for each team.

During the Championships participants also meet Indigenous AFL players and engage in leadership seminars.

The best performing 25 players are selected for the Flying Boomerangs squad.

The Championships will run from the 9th – 13th of September, 2013 in Melbourne.

NSWACT are currently seeking expressions of interest from females aged 13-18 years from an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander background to represent NSWACT at the inaugural event.

The players will be flown to Melbourne with the team and play teams representing each state and territory across Australia.

Previous AFL experience is not essential.
