Good footballers wanted for next season.
Hi There,
The Gap FC in The Gap, Brisbane is the best club in Brisbane to join for players from the UK and Ireland, last season we had about 40 players from back home playing at different levels of mens football.
The clubs committee are also predominately Poms, so we have a unique club atmosphere the same as we would get back home where players mix and socialise together and have the craic.
Its a great way of having an instant new circle of friends, we have great facilities with a large licensed clubhouse and one of the best football surfaces in Brissie.
The club has just recruited an English coach with an A license, who has a great track record of sucess here in Brisbane at the highest level to run our top squad.
We play our football in Premier 2 which is a decent sat or sunday standard from back home.
preseason training starts in December and the league runs from late feb until september.
The club has links with Celtic FC, via their merger with the Brisbane Celtic Supporters Club teams, and Celtic used our fields as their training base when they played in Brisbane in 2009, and have run training camps at the club.
All quality players are welcome to come along and join us, regardless of what football team you support,lol.
Anyone interested can contact me via email snip
We are only15 minutes out from Brisbane CBD, so get in touch and I can give you more details.
Cheers
John

Re: Good footballers wanted for next season.
CC,
what quality is it, I live in The Gap and would be interested, saying that the highlight of my career was man of the match for the under 12 lanarkshire schools cup final in 1988, it's all been downhill since then
Just about to start playing in the arana hills futsal league so trying to get back into the swing of it.
By the way, I'm a Rangers fan as well!

Re: Good footballers wanted for next season.
The standard is probably decent Sat or Sunday league back home, being a Gers fan is fine, makes for good banter, most of the lads are EPL fans, although we have about 6 Celtic lads from Scotland, but they are tryng to recruit their new mate from back home who has just moved over, he is a Rangers fan and is reluctant to put on a Green Shirt, so we told him to wear a blue vest underneath
We start preseason in December, keep in touch and pop down and have a look.
