In Adelaide and Perth, Rick Ladson joined Beau Muston and 2009 draftee Benjamin Stratton to take junior fans through a skills session before enjoying a BBQ and Q&A session.
During their time in Perth, the three Hawks also visited the Clontarf Aboriginal College in Waterside, where around 50 footballers fine-tuned their skills during a training session under the players’ direction.
In Sydney and Brisbane, Xavier Ellis, Tom Murphy and rookie Michael Johnston also held a footy clinic with junior members and supporters.
A highlight of the trip was a visit to the Anglican Church Grammar school where co-curricular leaders took part in a leadership and team dynamics session with the three Hawks, who outlined how leadership works within an AFL Club.
