Kevin Taylor, 2nd
year Medical student was selected as one of the fifty Indigenous players aged
between 18 - 24 from all over Australia for the AFL/Rio Tinto Footy Means Businessprogram. Initially this meant travelling to
Sydney in November 2011 for draft camp testing and playing in a North vs South
game where Kevin was awarded "best on ground." Apart from this, the experience involved exposing players to
AFL, Indigenous athletes such as Michael O'Loughlin, Patrick Johnson, Xavier
Clarke and Chris Johnson as well as some skills and leadership workshops.
