Eli has been playing football throughout the summer with an organisation called Coerver. It's a Dutch system and based on close ball skills. His skills have improved enormously over the last few months and it's a tightly run and well organised programme. The commitment has been high (he's had to play twice a week) but his appetite for the game is huge.
As it's nearly coming to an end they ran a one day four-a-side competition (small goals, no goalkeepers). Eli's team did well - the standard of some of the boys and girls is really fabulous.
The sessions are held at the University Canberra which has lovely pitches (unlike most of the rest of Canberra's grass which tends to be burnt at this time of year)
