What is the difference between AusKick and KangaKick?

KangaKick is the Calgary Kangaroos junior program aimed at children aged 9-13 which sees players participate in drills and activities for 25% of training and then organized games of Australian Football for 75%. KangaKick is for boys and girls with previous experience, such as a PE block of Australian Football at their school, or the confidence to participate in organized games of Australian Football.

What equipment does my child need?

Nothing! There is no equipment needed at all, just have them wear athletic clothes and runners (or cleats) for footwear. We will supply the footballs and jerseys. If they have a mouthguard, they can wear that, but as we teach non-contact it's just recommended, not required. Bringing along a water bottle is also recommended.
