​Today's offering completes the set of the only father/daughter combination to pull on the green & Gold.
Gary van Egmond has nominated the now merged Manly Soccer Club as his GrassRoots club. Manly & Allambie merged in 1992. 
Gary started out at Miller Reserve as a 4yr old making his way through the ages and into the Manly reps from u8-13's, eventually teaming up with another local Ian Gray (Manly Vale SC) at Apia because they were te closest NSL club.
Gary made his Socceroo debut against the might of Brazil in 1988 alongside Robbie Slater. He now assists Alen Stajcic in the coaching team of the Matilda's.

It is a pleasure to welcome aboard the player, coach & father who all hold their place in the history of our game, in one person, Gary van Egmond.

    the author

    Greg Werner began playing in 1965, with the GrassRoots club of Socceroo skipper Murray Barnes, a change of suburb at age 6 and a new club, one that would become the GrassRoots club of Rob Wheatley & after a 27 year hiatus came back to playing with the GrassRoots club of Socceroos Steve Perry, Richie Bell, Chris Iconomidis & Matilda, Justine Fisher, one could say that the links with the NT are ingrained.
    At age 55, when his body gave up on playing, he took up the whistle to stay actively involved. In November of 2014 he created the GFP on Facebook to fill the void left by those in control of the game & in January 2016 launched this website.
