Guess what? 

Today I received a letter from the Perth Glory Youth Academy (Perth Glory is Australia's most succesful club of recent years having won 4 of the last 6 Australian NSL titles and are also the richest and most influential club in oceania) offering me a scholorship!  :cool:
I have the opportunity to play for their youth team and potentially play proffesional football!  How cool is this...

but it doesn't stop there....

I also received two more offers this week

1. Qld Lions, Brisbane's representitve in the new A-League and a top club for young players

and 2. the Australian Institute of Sport.

How awesome is that?  Obviously you wouldn't know much about any of those 3 associations and your opinion wont have much effect on my eventual decision but which of the 3 do you guys think I should go with?

Best of luck to you.  That's brilliant news.

Did Harry Kewell play for any of them as a young lad?

Nah, Perth Glory is more like the modern day Leeds or Leiscter (now that they is relegated) only richer... and not 50 millions squids in debt.  Qld Lions is good for young players only 'cause they have no cash.  AIS is where all the big Australian athletes started out inc. footballers like Kewell, Bresciano and Viduka... course I'm getting ahead of myself...

Thanks for the well wishers fellas I actually have to make a decision within 3 weeks because after that I actually leave to join whichever one I pick.  Who knows maybe (albeit extremely unlikely) you'll see me in a red's shirt  :D  :D  :D

But hopefully Liverpool will always be good enough to not need me  :;):

Go for the Australian Institute of Sport...they have a great track record for producing excellent sportsmen and women.

starbridge, well done mate. Since you live in QLD then the Lions may be a good choice for you, but the AIS has brought up players like Viduka etc and their facilities and coaching is excellent. I did a tour of the AIS in Canberra last year and was quite impressed.
