Hey Madsad

welcome to BrisVegas, we got here 3 weeks ago.

http://www.qldlions.com/ might be able to point you in the right direction, they also have a forum on there which some one should be able to point you to a footie team.

Good luck

Shane

Hi Malcom (I pressume Donna's not asking this ). 'Fraid I only know directly about Touch Footy (me) and AFL (partner).
I thought N. Lakes had a little community hub thing, perhaps you can get some info there. Otherwise one of these might help?? http://www.ourbrisbane.com/activeand...all/soccer.htm

Red, red wine ... goes to my head ... makes me forget ................ ummmmm, what was I saying?!

Let's see if I can remember your request when the time comes, Malc! If, perchance, I do remember, I'm sure Michelle will keep Donna apace of the times!!

Cheers 'n' beers, mate
Chris

Carrianne's hubby plays in a team up a bit further - Caloundra way - they are mostly Brits I think. Drop her an email, as Idon't think she's on the site much now.

My Brother plays for Peninsula Power (in Redcliffe). They've got loads of teams at different levels. They'll be in the phonebook. It's a nice club, really sociable too. Everyone stays for a drink afterwoods at the clubhouse. Quite a few expats there aswell, as you can imagine.
