North Melbourne will hold its 2010 AFL Community Camp in Ballarat this week.

The Telstra AFL Community Camp is part of a national program that will see all AFL clubs in communities across Australia, giving locals an opportunity to get close to AFL at the highest level.

Children in the Ballarat region will have the opportunity to meet North Melbourne players during various school clinics, visits and autograph sessions.

North Melbourne’s camp will involve an intra-club match as well as free activities including super-clinics, hospital and school visits along with a coaching and player development forum.

A fundraising dinner will raise money for junior football in the region.
