POWER fans will be able to enjoy a kick-and-catch at the end of 12 of its games around Australia this year.
That includes four of the Power's 11 home games at the Adelaide Oval.
Children under 15 will also be given free general admission entry to Port Adelaide's games against Carlton (at Etihad) and Collingwood (at the MCG) as part of the AFL's 'Sunday Funday' push, when accompanied by an adult.
"One of our major objectives over the past 18 months has been to improve the accessibility and affordability of attending matches," the AFL's general manager of clubs and operations Travis Auld said.
"Free entry for children under 15 on Sundays at Etihad Stadium and the MCG makes attending the football really affordable for families at a really appealing time-slot, and this proved a great success in 2015."
"[And] There is no doubt our fans love the tradition of having a kick on the ground after the final siren.
"With close to half the matches during the home-and-away season including this opportunity, it shows that the AFL and our stadium partners are committed to continuing this tradition.
"We appreciate our partners accommodating this initiative while also balancing the need to prepare their grounds to such high standards.”
