SYDNEY SWANS VISIT PORT MACQUARIE
Port Macquarie children had the chance to learn AFL skills from some of the best yesterday, when two Sydney Swans players visited town.
Defender Alex Johnson and draftee Toby Pink ran an afternoon clinic at Wayne Richards Oval.
The visit was part of a state-wide tour, aimed at spruiking the sport in regional areas.
“Obviously up here is big rugby league territory and soccer’s big here too – so just to give the kids another look at a different sport, and I know as a kid I grew up playing all different sports,” Johnson said.
