PORT ADELAIDE’s 2018 draftees are attending a camp aimed at introducing them to life as a professional footballer.

The AFL Players’ Association AFL Induction Camp will see the eight recently recruited Power players join the first-year footballers from every other club on Monday and Tuesday at the two-day event at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium.

Port Adelaide’s draftees will on Monday learn about the support, resources and education programs available to them throughout their AFL careers.

Tuesday’s program will cover anti-doping, match-fixing, respectful relationships and a number of other key areas.

November’s AFL and Rookie Drafts saw Port Adelaide sign Connor Rozee, Zak Butters, Xavier Duursma, Riley Grundy, Boyd Woodcock, Tobin Cox, Martin Frederick and Kai Pudney.

All first-year players (apart from Collingwood's, who are on the Magpies training camp in Queensland) in the AFL are attending the induction.

The AFLPA's manager of player development Ben Smith said the camp was designed to educate the competition's newest players about the industry.

"For us it's just about making sure the players understand the opportunities to come and enjoy the game, and the opportunities the AFLPA can provide to support their careers on and off the field," Smith said.

"For us it's helping them understand the importance of having an identity away from the game, pursuing the opportunities, understanding their finances and empowering them to navigate their career when the time comes that it finishes."
