Happy New year to all our Auskick families.
Well, it’s hard to believe that the footy season is almost upon us, as it only feels like yesterday that we had our 2011 Presentation Day for Auskick!! Nevertheless, preparations are well & truly underway for what promises to be another exciting & action packed year of Auskick.
First of all, with regards to Registration Day, we have tentatively locked in a day in early March, however we are unable to confirm this until the AFL have confirmed the delivery dates of our packs, which we expect will be advised to us over the next week. Once again, this year you will have the choice to either register & pay online via the AFL’s Auskick website (www.aflauskick.com.au) or come along to our Registration Day. As some of you are aware, registering & paying online is a much more speedy & efficient way to register, compared to filling in registration forms on the day, so if you can assist us all by registering online, that would be greatly appreciated. The AFL have advised us that online registrations should be open to everyone in early February, so stay tuned & I will advise once it is available. If you do end up registering & paying online, please ensure that you select Templestowe Park as your preferred Auskick centre, as you will be presented with various choices of centres to select from.
As with previous years, the success of our Auskick centre is totally dependent on the volunteering of individuals, with either coaching, first aid, cooking a BBQ, helping run the canteen, etc. So I can start organising our resources for this year, I am keen to find out who is willing to assist us with the following:
We will once again run a level 0 coaching clinic for those wanting to learn the basics of coaching, in the first few sessions (date to be advised). We will also be seeking nominations for those interested in undertaking the level 1 coaching course run by the AFL during the year. Last year we had 5 coaches undertake the level 1 course, taking the number of level 1 coaches in our clinic to around 10 in total. This year we will look to hopefully have around another 5 coaches go through this course further boosting the number of level 1 qualified coaches in our centre. For those that are interested, please let me know as soon as possible so I can put down your names whilst I await further details of dates & times from the AFL.
I look forward to seeing you all again in season 2012.

Stay tuned for details such as registration day, calendar of events, etc of the upcoming 2012 season of Auskick.

Just a reminder that this Saturday is our last Auskick for the year, namely our Presentation Day. It would be greatly appreciated if everyone could be at the ground by 9:15am sharp, so we can get started right on 9:30am. We anticipate that we will still be finishing @ 11am, like every other week, so given what we have to get through on the day, a 9:30am start is important.
During the 90 minutes, we will be presenting all the Auskick children with their certificates & medallions (in age group order), plus making a few other special presentations. Whilst other groups are being presented with their medallions, etc, the children will be out on the ground having a fun game in their respective groups.
Please note that the BBQ will still be running on the day, like normal.
Look forward to seeing you all on Saturday morning for the very last time this year!!
Kind regards,
Carlo Colangelo

A reminder that the Fremantle FC Gala Day will start @ 9am this Saturday 6th August. The Auskick skills session will kick off at 9:30am sharp, with the assistance of the Fremantle FC players plus some Doncaster Heights JFC & Templestowe FC players as well.
Look forward to seeing you all on Saturday morning for a fun filled day.

| Dear Auskick parents,
Just a quick note to advise that the planned photo day for last Saturday has been shifted to this Saturday 4th June. Also, can everyone please note that the sessions each week start at 9:30am, with kick to kick starting around 9:15am. We need to ensure we do actually kick off at 9:30am each week, so it would be greatly appreciated if everyone is there ready to go by the time I blow the horn at 9:30am. A reminder also that as mentioned previously, if there is wet weather around, a decision will be made by 8:45am the latest, as to whether Auskick will proceed or not. I will post a message on our website only if the decision is to cancel the session. Please do remember that any players aged 7 & over are encouraged to register & play for our partner junior footy club, Doncaster Heights Junior Football Club. Over the years, we have developed a great pathway program from Auskick to junior footy, to senior footy, right through to AFL level with our association with Fremantle FC. All these clubs are strong supporters of our Auskick centre, so we are very keen to ensure all our Auskickers progress through the pathway program. Thanks very much & see you all on Saturday morning. Regards, Carlo |
Please be advised that today’s Auskick session has been cancelled due to the wet weather & the ground being too wet.
Thanks,
Carlo
REMINDER: Registration Day this Saturday 12th March from 9am to 11am down at Templestowe Reserve. Footy is back!!!
To avoid any delays on the day, register online at www.aflauskick.com.au, select Templestowe Park as your centre, feel free to pay online also or alternatively pay on registration day (cash or cheque only).
This season will once again be action packed with Richmond FC player visit, the IMPACT program run by Kidsskills, Fremantle FC’s annual family day (great for the kids to be up close to senior AFL players & for the parents too!!), an Auskick session under lights, plus much more. Please also note that any players currently registered with our partner junior football club, Doncaster Heights JFC, will be eligible to have half their Auskick registration fee rebated back to them. This is a great incentive & a great pathway program. NAB are once again running several competitions including Auskicker of the Year, so would be great to have one of our own representing the centre of Grand Final day!!
Looking forward to seeing you all on Saturday.
Kind regards,
