Junior Football Club
Auskick/Superkick - 8.30am Sundays
AUSKICK (PP - Year1)
As this will be your child's first-time playing Auskick our focus is to ensure that you children have a fun and enjoyable time playing Auskick. It is not about winning or kicking the most goals but about ensuring the children have fun so that they fall in love with this great and unique Australian game.
We are a community club that thrives on volunteers and all positions within Auskick (Coaches, Team Managers and the Auskick Coordinator) are all volunteer roles filled by parents of players.
Coach - This is a truly rewarding experience, and it certainly helped my son to be more engaged because his dad was coach. The time commitment is basically half an hour to an hour preparation and then the hour of Sunday games.
Team Manager - The Team Manager's role is to send out communications to the team and maintain the roster of parent helpers. If you're not overly keen on coaching or assisting the coach with activities this is a great way to be involved with your child's team and get to know the other parents.
Parent Volunteers Game Day - each Sunday the team will undertake four Auskick activities followed by a game simulation. Parents are required each week to assist the coach to run these activities, the team manager will be given a spreadsheet to record each of the parent volunteers each week.
2026 SUPERKICK (Year 2)
A Fun New Footy Program for Our Year 2 Players! We’re excited to announce that in 2026, the Fremantle City Dockers Junior Football Club is launching a brand-new program for our Year 2 footy players called Superkick!
What is Superkick?
Superkick is an exciting, tackle-free, modified version of Australian Rules Football designed for children aged 7–12 — perfect for Year 2 players starting out or looking to develop confidence and skills in a fun, supportive environment.
Why it’s great for kids:
-
Fun & Inclusive: Every child can participate, no matter their experience level. It’s all about fun, teamwork and making friends.
-
Skill Development: Sessions focus on developing footy skills like kicking, handballing and game sense through play-based activities.
-
Tackle-Free Environment: Rather than full tackling, players use a one-hand tag to keep the game safe and welcoming.
-
Modified Match Play: Children get plenty of involvement — teams are smaller (around 5-9 players), giving everyone lots of touches of the ball and the chance to try different positions.
-
Simple Weekly Sessions: Superkick runs once a week in one location with games and skills practice bundled into a roughly 60-minute session.
What Parents Should Know:
-
No Team Needed: Your child can register individually — squads are formed each week so your child always has a team to play with.
-
Easy Fit with Family Life: With just one session a week at the same location, Superkick is designed to fit easily around school and other commitments.
-
Get Involved: Parents are welcome to help out as activity helpers, match umpires or goal umpires — a great way to be part of your child’s footy journey!
-
What to Bring: Comfortable sports clothes, footy boots or runners, a footy and a water bottle — and heaps of enthusiasm! (Exact details will be provided at registration.)
Superkick is a fantastic stepping stone between Auskick and full club footy, helping young players build confidence, learn skills and fall in love with the game we all enjoy. We can’t wait to see our Year 2 Dockers in action in 2026!
