NT Flying Boomerangs Head for South Africa

Four young Territorians embarked on the trip of a lifetime on Saturday, en route with the Qantas Flying Boomerangs squad to South Africa.

Keelan Fejo (Katherine), Sam Autio (Palmerston) & Braeden McLean (Waratah) will be joined by Jake Neade (Elliott) as the 4 Territorians on the trip which will see them spend 2 weeks in South Africa on trip which is as much about leadership & a cultural exchange as it is about promoting the gospel of Aussie Rules.

The team will be coached by AFL Foundation CEO, Jason Mifsud (who previously Coached our NT Thunder U18's & U16's). Mifsud will be assisted by former AFL stars, Michael O'Loughlin & Chris Johnson.
