Indigenous All Stars match
Hey folks,
Who's watching the Indigenous All Stars match tmw night? It's been a real great concept of the NRL's which has been fantastic to watch. From what I remember the AFL do something like it but its not as popular.

bells on E
myself & my son will be nestling down in front of the box tonight to watch our favourite NRL players in both Teams
the Raiders are well represented in both
I am expecting young Dugan to carve at fullback for the All Stars ..... & Idris to be a handfull out wide for the All stars D
theres only about 400 tickets left
so it will sellout .... a million plus watching on the box
its just a wonderful event that brings indigenous & non indigenous Australians together ... they'll be a fitting tribute to the late great arthur beetson
it will be the biggest sporting event on the Gold Coast this year by several miles
the AFL's pale imitation at this type of event was cancelled last year due to lack of interest
when will they get something outside of club football ( & thats going south too )............ right

There are other important things beyond a single all star game though.

Find out more about the numerous AFL programs that support indigenous footballers and communities.
AFL Kickstart
The AFL Kickstart program uses Australian Football as a vehicle to promote healthy lifestyles in indigenous communities. The program works with state governments to tailor messages for different regions and communities. It includes NAB AFL Auskick and involves children, teenagers, adults, coaches and administrators.
In 2011, the Kickstart program expanded to include the AFL Indigenous Kickstart U15 National Championships which run at a different location each year. From the Championships the Flying Boomerangs will be selected on criteria consisting of onfield performances and off-field leadership. More about the U15 Kickstart Championships
Flying Boomerangs
The Flying Boomerangs program is a personal development and leadership program for selected participants from the Kickstart program. The program includes a three-match series against international teams and and intense leadership and cultural development workshops.
The international matches are held in different countries each year including South Africa, Tonga or Papa New Guinea.
Twenty-five participants are selected based on leadership potential and football ability.
U23 Rio Tinto Footy Means Business Program
Each year, the Footy Means Business program provides talent and employment opportunities for 50 young Indigenous men from all over Australia .
The program consists of two camps, one in Sydney in October and the second in May in Melbourne.
During the camps participants are exposed to the routine of a professional AFL player, including high performance testing, training and conditioning.
Between the two camps participants are assigned a mentor and are required to undertake a personal development project in their community.
During the camps participants are introduced to potential career opportunities with our corporate partners. The AFL and Rio Tinto have set a 100% target for participants to be engaged in employment/education or training at the completion of the program.
AFL Indigenous All Star Match & AFLPA Camp
The AFL and AFLPA partner to combine the camp and All Stars game every two years. This enables further development for Indigenous players and celebrates their contribution to our game.
Attending the camp are 80+ Indigenous AFL players. The camp entails personal development, career planning and cultural identity workshops.
The players have the opportunity to engage in the community, attending numerous schools and communities in Sydney and Darwin.
The camp culminates in the AFL Indigenous All Stars Match against an AFL Club.
Indigenous Academies
The AFL currently has five Indigenous Academies (including the Worawa Academy and Munarra Academy) designed to increase school attendance, completion of year 12 and indigenous participation in sport. Each academy has its own unique program to respond to local opportunities and needs. The academies are spread across Australia with one located in Queensland, two in New South Wales, and two in Victoria.
AFL Ambassadors for Life Mentoring Program
The AFL in collaboration with the AFL Players’ Association and AFL SportsReady have developed the AFL “Ambassadors for Life” Mentoring Program. This program works with players to develop mentoring and leadership skills. Players then mentor young indigenous people throughout the Australian community.
AFL Club Fostership Program
The AFL Club Community Fostership Program is a three-year engagement strategy to encourage Indigenous children and teenagers to reach their full potential. AFL Clubs partner with indigenous communities and, in conjunction with local schools and community organisations, engage young people in school and sporting activities. The nature of the program will vary from community to community and link with existing activities being delivered for young people.
Indigenous Employment Strategy
This framework complements the AFL's diversity, community engagement and corporate responsibility strategies. We are developing a Statement of Commitment and will set challenging targets for indigenous employment across the AFL industry.

Re: Indigenous All Stars match
Amusing stuff.
I'm chuffed this game's a sellout. And also chuffed with cos lettuce, displaying his ignorance of the AFL and their activities. Does that guy even follow the sport? He sure seems to have little knowledge of it. From the look of this thread, if a new member were to pop in, they'd be accurate in assuming RD knows more about AR than cos.
Oh and dream time at the g is a fantastic concept Xman, a fairly stirring event, though Raider is asking for things other than club games
