North Melbourne AFLW Captain Emma Kearney supporting our latest program

Ladder’s Step Up Latrobe Valley program participants were lucky enough to have North Melbourne AFLW Captain Emma Kearney jump online and run some interactive games for some of our Program 17 participants and alumni.

The program is being delivered online this week, as participants continue engaging with the program via online sessions. It was a nice surprise to have Emma facilitate part of the session and lift the spirits of the young people who have been going through a tough time recently.

AFL and AFLW players often participate in our programs with young people and we are so grateful for the knowledge, experience and fun they bring to the sessions.

We thank Emma for her time with the group today, it certainly put a smile on all our faces.
