Hundreds of young Sydney Swans members descended on the SCG on Monday for this year's Swans Squad Footy Clinic.

The cooler weather proved no deterrent as kids, all proudly wearing their favourite jumper or red and white kit, rubbed shoulders with their heroes for a morning of fun and games.

Divided into groups, kids honed their skills across a range of disciplines including kicking, marking, handballing, goal kicking and - everyone's favourite - tackling.

Each station provided different challenges for participants and gave them an opportunity to get up close and personal with their favourite players.

All the big names were out there including the likes of Isaac Heeney, Dane Rampe, Dan Hannebery and, of course, Lance Franklin.

The players then spent some time signing autographs on everything from jumpers, caps, footy cards and Buddy Dolls.

The clinic, exclusive to Junior or Swans Squad members, is an annual event and run during the mid-year school holidays.
