00:00 We were able to kick off juniors in 2019 with an under 12s and a youth girls side.
00:07 They give basically an opportunity and that's what we look for, give those boys and girls
00:16 an opportunity coming out of Auskick to come and play footy.
00:20 Under 14s, under 16 boys and also now under 14 girls.
00:26 An Auskick program for our under 18s and under 10s.
00:30 I think this season we had 120 odd registered participants.
00:35 It was massively important, it kept the door to the club open but it kept people engaged.
00:43 Our volunteers engaged, our sponsors.
00:46 New people coming through the door, not only players but supporters, volunteers, people
00:52 just want to support a community club.
