english rules soccer
Are there soccer clubs out there ie: Rockingham, for 13 year olds?
My son is a very successful goalie in UK and we are hoping to be in Oz by the end of the next soccer season. I know that he will be heartbroken if he is unable to play in goal. His ambition is to get Australian citizenship and then have both England and Australia competing to have him as their country's goalie in the world cup.
He is also a keen basketball player, karate, cricket and tennis player. If it involves sport and not homework then he is interested
No seriously, he is actually very bright and I would like to know what it is like getting a scholarship to a private school there.
My husband is a plumber and we are just waiting to hear back from TRA. I have a sister in Wellard who is sponsoring us. We are biting our nails to get the TRA back ok as my husband we be 45 at the beginning of Sept so we need to get this right first time :scared:
Nervous and excited at the same time. This is a brill website.

Just trying to get into Oz speak already. Although I suppose it's a bit much to expect a West Ham supporter to understand that
