School Holiday Footy Fun!
With footy season in full swing, during the July school holidays young children from throughout the AFL Goldfields region again have the chance to participate in the Select Australia AFL Goldfields Holiday Program
During the next school break, holiday programs will be held in Ballarat, Bacchus Marsh & Sunbury.
The school holiday program consists of a whole day of football fun including skills and drills, modified matches, competitions and fantastic give-aways.
Every child that participates in the Select Australia AFL Goldfields Holiday Program will receive a FREE Select 2015 Champions Value Pack, with five packets of AFL football cards, a special album to hold them in and a fantastic poster filled with cartoons of all of your favourite AFL players – a $15 value!!
You’ll also be able to bring your 2015 Select Champions footy cards along with you to the Select Champions Trading Station, where you’ll be able to swap your cards to obtain those of your favourite players, team you barrack for or complete the set…just like in schoolyards across the country!
AFL Goldfields Regional General Manager Rod Ward says the Select Australia AFL Goldfields Holiday Programs are designed to be interactive and fun, and cater for beginners and avid footballers alike.
“This is a great school holiday activity for the kids – giving them the chance to be outdoors, active, making friends and learning new skills.
“All the equipment and resources are provided and it’s a chance to have a whole day focussed on practising footy skills and then testing your ability like an AFL mini draft camp, as well as collecting the latest Select footy cards and swapping them with your mates!”
The Select Australia AFL Goldfields Holiday Program is for children aged 5 years to 12 years, and costs $65.
Registration for each of the school holiday programs, and further information, is available via the AFL Victoria website: www.aflvicholidayprograms.com.au
