Schoolboy scoring sensation, Socceroo #136, is the latest to throw his hat in the ring.
Keith Learmonth has nominated the now defunct Gwynneville Soccer Club from the Illawarra to Sydney's south as his GrassRoots club. Wiseman Park is now, for the most part, a Rugby League ground, but its where Keith grew up playing before moving, as a teenager, to Nth. Wollongong & thence the almighty Corrimal Rangers to play alongside 3 other internationals. Keith is centre row left in the primary school pic.
He also holds the record for being the first player to represent Australia at both junior & senior level, playing in the U15 side who took on NZ in 1948.
Keith was the leading scorer in state football for 3 years, outshining even the great Reg Date before injury sadly brought his blossoming career to a premature end.
Another thorough gentleman and a pleasure to say, welcome aboard Keith.
