Contact from half time volunteers
This will occur 1 week prior to your game. They will get in contact to introduce themselves
and give any additional information.
Process on game day
Participants will meet NAB Auskick half time volunteers a minimum of 1hour before the
game. Here they will give out tickets for the game and lead them to their seats.
Participants are asked to go to the bathroom etc before ¼ time. At ¼ time they will be
taken down to the rooms with some parents helpers/goal umpires to get changed into
their NAB AFL Auskick gear. We ask female participants to wear a t-shirt for under the half
time uniform as some of the gear can be loose around the arms. If there are female
participants we also require a female parent in the rooms. Once players are changed
they will be given directive from our volunteers and lead to the race. At half time once
they receive security clearance players will enter the ground. They will play from
approximately 12-14minutes. After half time they will be escorted back to the rooms, get
changed, return the uniforms and receive their participation certificate. Participants will
then be lead back to the seating.
