FAQs
GENERAL
NAB AFL Superkick is a modified version of AFL that focuses on skill development for 7-to-12-year-olds.
That means - tackle free (tag), highly social, shorter seasons and no additional training required.
It’s a great way for those with zero or limited experience to get introduced to AFL and for those current or past players who want to keep fit and play some footy with friends.
You can expect one 60-minute session per week, split into approximately 15 minutes of skills before participants put those skills into action with up to 45 minutes of modified match play.

Superkick is a great way for kids to gain confidence while developing footy and match play skills, while Auskick is more about learning AFL fundamental skills through game-based activities. Sessions for both are tailored based on pace and ability.
Superkick requires only one session at the same location each week, so it’s easy to slot into a jam-packed schedule. For junior footy, training and matches are on separate days. Superkick teams range from 5-9 players per side in modified match play, so kids learn footy and build confidence while still staying safe and having fun. Junior footy, on the other hand, is full AFL, but tailored to a smaller footballer.
Children can start playing Superkick in the year that they turn 7. In Western Australia, participants turning 7 before June 30 can participate.
If you’re younger than this, we recommend NAB AFL Auskick. Click here to check out how awesome Auskick is!

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Runners or football boots and something you can move in! We'll provide you with bibs to help differentiate between teams in the match portion of the session.
For any community/club Superkick centres, an adult needs to be present for your child for the duration of the session. We love all parents/guardians to assist at Superkick so why not get involved in your child’s group?
For all before or after school centres an adult also needs to be present for the duration of the session.
Sessions will vary in length depending on your centre. Most centres will run for 30-60 minutes per session.
Program length also varies depending on your centre. This could be 4 weeks up to 10 weeks+.
Community/Club centres each have a NAB AFL Superkick Coordinator who runs the centre, this is largely due to the amazing efforts of volunteers.
School-based centres each are delivered by a team of AFL staff members.
All parents/guardians are encouraged to get involved in NAB AFL Superkick and no experience is necessary.
There is no set uniform for Superkick sessions, just ensure your child is comfortable to be able to participate in all activities.
We recommend sports clothing and either runners or footy boots. Many participants choose to wear their AFL team’s colours and jumpers. School uniform is okay too!
In some cases where our staff and volunteers deem it unsafe Superkick will not run.
Volunteers and staff will endeavour to provide this information prior to the session if practically possible.
