Junior Game Milestones











Auskick
2024 saw the Bombers run a successful Auskick program under the leadership of Ben Howen. 49 boys and girls participated in the program which was run on Sunday mornings.
The 2024 program culminated with the Auskickers getting the opportunity to play at half time of the final round Cup Women's match.
Apart from the playing the game the highlight for the Auskickers was getting to run through a guard of honour made up of the senior men's players. There were plenty of "high fives" being handed out.
A big then you to Ben Howen and his team for running a magnificent Auskick program this year.
Thank you also to the parents for supporting the children.
Hope to see you all at presentation day and back in a Bombers guernsey next year
