Power Cup
Aboriginal Power Cup
The 2010 Aboriginal Power Cup (APC) was contested over a 20 week period and involved 16 schools from right across South Australia.
The APC focuses on curriculum activities based around Australian Rules football, and concludes with a football carnival and workshops held at Alberton oval, before the finalists’ play-off for the APC on AAMI Stadium as a curtain raiser to a Port Adelaide Football Club (Power) match.
The 2010 APC Final was played as a curtain raiser to the Power v Sydney match on Saturday June 12.
The students were welcomed with a formal dinner on the Thursday night at the Port Club before the focus turned to the following day’s carnival.
All 67 matches were held at Alberton oval on Friday 11th June, action was fierce and skilful with plenty of sportsmanship on show.
Saturday morning was an early start back on the playing field with finals held until 11:30am before students took part in workshops throughout the afternoon.
The teams lucky enough to make it through to the Grand Finals were announced and made their way to AAMI Stadium.
