Thrill for youngster at Grand Final
Young Coffs Harbour Auskicker, Joshua Oliver experienced a dream yesterday presenting a premiership medallion at the AFL Grand Final.
Joshua was one of three lucky Auskickers from NSW to be offered the opportunity. He was among the 94 children to play at half-time in the big match, and even better was one of only 22 kids from that group to present a medal to a Hawthorn player.
Joshua won the chance by describing in 25 words or less why he loved playing NAB AFL Auskick.
He joined the other children from all around Australia at an Official Welcome Dinner at the MCG and also participated in the Grand Final Parade, as well as the Pre-Match Grand Final Entertainment.
What a great thrill that Joshua will never forget.
