WHAT IS NON-COMPETITIVE JUNIORS?

Non-Competitive Juniors is the next step up from Auskick Pros – and is for all Boys & Girls aged 9 – 11! The foundation of non-competitive juniors is for all players to have fun and to be involved, whilst also teaching players the key skills of AFL. Games are modified to accommodate increased involvement and enjoyment for all whilst additionally focusing on skill development.

Game modifications include:

  • Modified tackling
  • Field zoning
  • No scoring of games to increase fun and involvement for all
  • Smaller fields
  • Fewer players on the field
  • Key focus on key AFL skills such as – kicking, marking and handballing
