Kemp, from Echuca, injured his knee playing school football for Geelong Grammar and will see a surgeon next week to determine the extent of the damage.
The Bendigo Pioneers fear Kemp might be the third player on their list this year to suffer a torn ACL.
Flynn Perez (Sandhurst) and Nathan Kay (Rochester) had their 2019 seasons ruined by knee injuries.
Kemp was one of Victoria Country's best players at the recent AFL National Under-18 Championships.
Kemp is best known as a defender, but he spent some of the national carnival in the midfield. His best performance was 27 possessions and the match-winning goal against SA.
His performances saw him rocket into contention for first round selection in this year's AFL National Draft.
