GOAL HSC Teammates (Sporting Stream)
Whether you’re happiest on the track, on the field, on the court or cheering on the sidelines, doing your HSC with one of GOAL’s Sporting Teammates will keep you excited about finishing your final years of school.
Changing schools can feel daunting, but having a group of classmates that have chosen the same Teammate as you means that you’ll have something to bond over before you’ve even started.

Their industry-leading programs increase sports participation and engagement across NSW, leading to great outcomes for our students and the wider community.
“I was able to volunteer with AFL NSW/ACT and gain experience at a number of events including the Paul Kelly Cup. What I enjoyed most was working with the AFL NSW/ACT staff, who were extremely welcoming and helpful, making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the day.
At the event, I also was given the opportunity to do some talent scouting as part of the AFL NSW/ACT Future Starts program. It gave me a sense of pride seeing the kids’ faces light up when I gave them the invitation and really showed me how rewarding a job like this could be.”
