Bigpond have teamed with the NRL to launch a site that allows footy-mad-youngsters to access a range of 'brain benders' and quizzes that teach them about their club, the best players and facts about the NRL. The site is perfect for those who already love the sport or those who are just discovering the NRL.

The site features games that can be played online or purchased; these games are amongst the latest kids music, movies, competitions and a range of healthy eating and living tips to ensure kids play well and stay well.

The healthy tips should ensure kids play well and stay well as these tips are coming from a fun site and the NRL players follow these tips!

Nathan Hindmarsh is a Telstra ambassador and a NRL League footballer for the Parramatta Eels, he hopes that the website will help get kids more interested in the game.

Nathan Hindmarsh believes that "this is a great way for kids to get involved and feel more connected with NRL. Not all kids are confident footballers but this is a non-threatening way to educate kids and get them interested. It also reinforces the importance of physical activity and health."

Nathan continued to say that "when I was growing up it was important to kids to have a connection with the game and I think this site will help that".
