South East Juniors Auskick Clinic
Twelve Melbourne players, including Mark Jamar and Neville Jetta, ventured out to Dandenong to conduct an Auskick clinic with local residents before the recent South East Juniors preliminary final.
Over 30 diehard young Demons spent time with the players learning to tackle, handball and kick.
Mark Jamar said, “It’s great to meet so many excited children in the red and blue. There were some great skills on show. Hopefully we see some of these kids running around for the Dees down the track.”
At the conclusion of the clinic, the participants enjoyed an egg and bacon roll and fruit juice, while watching some great finals action from the South East Juniors.
