Video: Dipper and Boomer kick goals over the NBN

Posted on Saturday 29 September 2012 by Dan Warne

Junior players from South Morang and North Epping football clubs showed off their footy skills during Grand Final Week to Hawthorn legend Robert DiPierdomenico.

Dipper was at the helm for the world’s first National Broadband Network-enabled footy coaching clinic.

The event was held to celebrate the connection to the NBN of 2300 homes in South Morang – the latest suburb to receive superfast broadband.

Legal stuff you need to know:

When we talk about speeds delivered over the National Broadband Network, we are referring to the wholesale speed to telephone and internet service providers. The speed you can achieve, and services you can use, on your individual connection will depend on many factors including the services you subscribe to, the software and communication protocols you use, quality of your equipment and connection to your home/business, the broadband plans offered by your telephone or internet provider and how it designs its network to cater for multiple users.
