Your club needs you

Drummoyne Power is a community club, run by parents so their children can play AFL.

We need more volunteers, both at a team level and at a club level.

Would you like to be involved in the Drummoyne Power board? We have several key vacancies as families have either moved away from Sydney, or their children have graduated to play youth footy.

You can volunteer a little, or a lot. We’ll work with you to make sure you have the support you need, and you’re not overcommitted.

Contact us for more information.

Registrations are open

Registrations have opened for boys and girls to play AFL with Drummoyne Power.

We’re accepting new and returning players in all age groups, from U5 through to U17 boys and U18 girls.

Auskick

AFL Auskick is an introductory program and is the best fun kids can have being active! In weekly sessions kids will explore the world of AFL, building football skills and playing in a safe and super fun setting. Expect small groups, heaps of games and parent/guardian involvement.

Our Auskick program is for U5 to U8.

Juniors

In U9 and above, our kids play home and away games. It’s still a modified version of Aussie Rules and the emphasis is still on fun, participation and learning footy skills. In U11, games are scored for the first time, and finals are introduced.

Youth footy

From U12 and above, Drummoyne Power kids play for our youth club, the Canada Bay Cannons. They still register as Drummoyne Power, but they train and play as Cannons.

Girls footy

Girls play alongside boys from U5 until U14. In U10 they can choose to keep playing alongside boys, or join our Youth Girls teams in the Canada Bay Cannons. Come girls even choose to do both! They play for Drummoyne Power in a mixed team on Saturdays, then play in Youth Girls with the Cannons on Sundays.

So, what are you waiting for?

Head over to our registration page to sign up to play AFL for Drummoyne Power in 2023. Don’t forget to download your Active Kids Voucher BEFORE you pay. It takes $100 off the cost of registration, but can’t be claimed afterwards.

You’ll also find lots of cool Drummoyne Power off-field merchandise on offer. It’s non-compulsory. We’ll supply all their on field uniforms at the start of the season – you just have to organise footy boots and a mouthguard!

girls playing AFL with Drummoyne Power

Girls play AFL

Female footy is continuing to grow and Drummoyne Power is the place to start!

Our Auskick program for U5 through to U8s is the perfect place for girls (and boys) to learn basic footy skills. There’s no tackling, modified rules and an inclusive atmosphere. Auskick is fun and safe, and a great place for girls involved in this terrific team sport.

Girls can play alongside boys up to the age of 14, and we have girls playing in Drummoyne Power’s U9 to U11 teams.

But we also offer all-girls teams from U10 through to U18 as part of our Canada Bay Cannons youth AFL club.

Why not give it a try in Season 2021? Registrations are open now.

PS: Don’t forget to claim your Active Kids Voucher before registering… it takes $100 off the cost of registration. All the details and links are on our registration page.

Volunteer for Season 2021

Footy season will be here before you know it! We’re looking for volunteers – at a team and club level – to help get our kids on the footy field in Season 2021.

If you’re interested in coaching or managing a team or helping out on our Board,  please let us know.

Volunteering for your local footy club is a great way to be part of your community, and to be involved in a sport your child loves.

We can tailor your volunteer experience to your skill set and availability. While some roles such as coaching or managing a team require weekly commitment, others may need just an hour or two at home games or midweek.
