In great news for NZ footy, the AFL's Hawthorn Football Club will visit New Zealand in June this year. The itinerary includes the three major centres of Christchurch on Monday 21st, Wellington on Tuesday 22nd and Auckland on Wednesday 23rd.

Players will visit schools and community groups to assist in the promotion of AFL in New Zealand. Details of players attending and a finalised itinerary are yet to be decided. The visit corresponds to the AFL's split round, with Hawthorn having a break the weekend following their visit.
