Live the Dream, presented by Decmil, is a once in a lifetime opportunity for 16 young Australians to become immersed in the culture of the Fremantle Dockers Football Club and ‘live the life’ of an AFL player for five days.

Live the Dream offers participants a rare opportunity to develop skills and behaviours, which can deliver long-term benefits to the individual and their local community.

The program will include a tour of Fremantle headquarters and Domain Stadium, a survival base camp in Chidlow, a ropes course at Point Walter Recreation Camp in Bicton as well as leadership and health and well being training sessions.

The Live the Dream program commences on Friday 3 July with Fremantle players Michael Walters, Tommy Sheridan, Hayden Crozier, Nick Suban, Chris Mayne, Michael Johnson, Danyle Pearce and Zac Clarke as the participant mentors.

Meet 17-year-old Madison Irving from Warnbro
 
The opportunity to improve, develop and learn lifelong skills are the reasons Madison applied to be involved with the Live the Dream program in 2015.
 
Madison is a student with SEDA and has been involved in many different sports including, swimming, cheerleading, cross country, dancing, horse riding and triathlons.
 
Madison’s teacher, Lauren Byrnes, describes the 17-year-old as a mature role model for her fellow peers.
 
“She is sitting at 100 per cent for attendance this year and her behaviour is outstanding,” Lauren said.
 
“Madison demonstrates the ability to lead and has some excellent future goals in place already.”
