Essendon Football Club in conjunction with the Melbourne Airport is this year launching the Flying Squad to support grassroots footy.

Flying Squad will visit the North West region Aus kick centres throughout the year to enhance the experience of the children taking part.

The Flying Squad will make their first visit this Saturday April 21st at Aberfeldie Aus kick centre with the main feature set to be the new giant inflatable ‘Bomber Challenge.’

Also in attendance will be the new Skeeta mascot to welcome all the children involved and show off his new uniform.

As seen in the image above on Tuesday afternoon students from Essendon Primary School tested out the new inflatable ‘Bomber Challenge’ with great success.

Keep an ear out for when the Flying Squad might be coming to your nearest Aus kick centre.
