Being chased and kicking an Aussie Rules ball
is a skill that's easier said than done! |
(Watch Video #2) Kicking is a major part of Aussie Rules. After all, it is called
FOOTball! Players need to kick the ball between the goal posts in order to score and can also use kicking to pass the ball to another team mate. The action used is very similar to that of an NFL Punter.
One difference is that players will kick the ball 'on the run'. That is a player may take possession of the ball, run 10 steps and then kick (either for goal or to a teammate).
