The Moranbah Bulldogs have reaped the benefits of having their own NAB AFL Auskick program at Stevenson Oval, receiving a club assistance voucher from AFL Queensland.
With near one hundred participants running around on Stevenson Oval every Thursday afternoon, club NAB AFL Auskick is a key in transition from school to club participant. The Bulldogs are ranked number one across the region, for most participants.
In February this year, AFL Queensland launched their club assistance fund, to assist community clubs who ran a NAB AFL Auskick program at their club with an opportunity to receive a voucher to better resource the club program's.
To receive the vouchers, each club needs to reach a certain key criteria benchmark based around participation, transition and female participation.
AFL Queensland Regional Manager in Mackay, Jeff Neumann was stoked to present the Moranbah Bulldogs with their voucher on Thursday afternoon.
"The Moranbah Bulldogs have run a terrific NAB AFL Auskick program for many years, led by junior coach Ross Branch and this voucher will now assist in running a higher quality program for the club NAB AFL Auskickers," Regional Manager Neumann said.
"The voucher can be used with Hart Sport to better resource the clubs program with new equipment, to give everyone a bigger and better experience, each and everytime.
"We (AFL Queensland) have quite a few more presentations to make to other AFL Mackay Junior clubs, over the coming weeks," Neumann added.
NAB AFL Auskick is a key introductory participation program, run right across the Mackay region. To find your nearest centre, go to www.aflauskick.com.au.
