Earlier this week, players from SANFL’s APY Thunder and Yirara College were welcomed behind the scenes of SAPOL's operations, ahead of their Don McSweeney Cup clash at Adelaide Oval as part of the AFL's First Nations Round.

On Tuesday, the under 18s visited Echunga Police Training Reserve where they were hosted by STAR Group and met members from the Bomb Response Unit and the Remotely Piloted Aircraft Section. The visit included demonstrations and activities with specialist police, before players joined officers for some footy drills and lunch.

The group then travelled to Gepps Cross where they watched demonstrations from the Dog Operations Unit featuring PD Echo and PD Orbit, before touring Mounted Operations and meeting PH Encounter and PH Zeppelin.

Before taking the field on Thursday, the players also visited the Road Safety Centre where they participated in a safety session with officers, using the simulators and virtual reality technology.

Despite the wet weather, the players brought plenty of enthusiasm and energy to every experience. We were proud to host and connect with the teams ahead of their match!
