Use the cones to make a circle, with the goal post target in the middle.
Auskickers are to have one ball and stand next to a cone.
On “go” Auskickers kick their footy and aim for the stick!
Anyone who hits the stick gets a point.
Slowly up the points the target is worth. Be playful - get up to a thousand or a million points!
As Auskickers busily “kick the stick”, provide some handy hints like:
Have Auskickers aim to kick over the target, or have an adult handball to the Auskicker before they turn and kick at the stick.
Try a run up before the kick.
Experiment with different balls and encourage Auskickers to kick on their alternate foot.
Make sure everyone takes care as footballs will be flying everywhere.
Make sure everyone knows they can’t collect the balls until you say so.
