Benefits of IN School Footy Sessions

What is the school going to get out of having an In School Footy Session?

  • Introducing the kids to a new sport.
  • A brand new sport creates an inclusive environment as nobody is good, nobody is bad at the sport.
    • Great for kids/groups who haven’t had a positive experience with sport in the past.
  • Helping out schools who don’t have a PE department.
    • Lots of budget cuts coming to education so PE/sport generally gets cut first.
  • Personal Development opportunity for the Teachers. They will have access to teaching materials to continue teaching the sport.
  • Fun experience for the kids - team building, resilience, grit, growth mindset opportunities.
  • Opportunity for students to participate in extracurricular programming outside of school afterwards (Auskick).
  • Getting the school involved in the wider community (Clubs, Auskick Centres)
  • Can be adapted to indoor/outdoor or can be run on small fields, hardtops, gym, etc.
  • All sessions conducted at the school so no need for bussing and related costs.
