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.
