Chris Bush (Goulburn) Danai Gapare, Stephen Domenici, and Ben Harrington all arrived back in Canberra this morning fresh from the Australian Under 17 Youth international tournament in Japan.

Every footballers dream surely!

And when you think who has gone before them. KazPatafta, Shaun Ontong, Carl Valeri, Nikolai Topor-Stanley, Ned Zelic and Matthew Kemp to name a few from Canberra alone.

Where will these guys end up?

For now the enthusiasm and joy could be seen by all.

Four boys from John Mitchell's Capital Football representative squad, and Milan Milanovic's ACTAS side is a massive achievement for the Coaches, and football in Canberra.

Well done to the Coaches.

I'll have interviews with each of the boys during the week as they discuss football, dreams, Japan and female fans in Japan!

And a footnote:

And perhaps we should be adding Alex Meibush to that list of future stars. Alex was selected in the original thirty players. Although he wasn't picked to go this time, he can't be too far out of the picture. Let's hope he makes the next trip in October to Singapore.
