Beatty Park exploded with life early on the 5th of July as the East Perth District July Holiday Clinic geared up for another year. The sun was out and shining as more than 160 children between the ages of 5 & 12 turned out to show their skills and have some fun.
East Perth Football Club players assisted with the day taking groups for games and sharing their skills and experience with the lucky participants; many of whom we predict to see in a royals jumper in the very near future.
Plenty of fresh fruit and muffins were available throughout the day to give the kids a healthy snack and keep up their energy levels up between the drills and skills.
The West Coast Eagles also made a visit with 5 players attending from the club. Adam Selwood, Ben McKinley, Luke Shuey, Jarrad Oakley-Nichols and Koby Stevens arrived at the clinic and were a huge hit as they answered questions, sign some autographs and show the skills that got them to the highest level.
East Perth District Development Officer Brendan McFaull said the day was a great success and would only get bigger in the future. As part of the clinic kids had the opportunity to purchase a replica royals jumper and it was fantastic to see so many running around on the day.
