School information
The Calgary Kangaroos are committed to helping grow the sport of Australian Rules Football in schools in Calgary.
We can offer assistance in a number of different ways including:
- Providing teaching resources (coaching manuals, lesson plans, activity guides) to allow teachers to run footy in their classes on their own. See "Lesson plan" section below.
- Giving schools the opportunity to purchase equipment. See "Order form" attachment at the end of this page.
- Providing schools with qualified coaches to lead full day to full week sessions with your classes. If you want to book a coach to come to your school, e-mail calgary.kangaroos@gmail.com
- Matching schools. We have visited over 20 schools in the past two years, and many have expressed an interest in playing inter-school games. We would help by pairing up schools interested in playing inter-school games, based on the school grade interested and the geography. Furthermore, we would provide an umpire, goal posts and match ball for the schools to use, at no cost. To be paired with another school, e-mail calgary.kangaroos@gmail.com
