Today's nominator grew up playing at the bucolic Oliver's Meadow. He is Socceroo #552, former Brisbane Roar skipper Matt Smith.
Matt has named Barnham Trojans FC as his GrassRoots club. Barnham is in the 6 villages area near Chichester on the English south coast.
Matt made his Socceroo debut alongside 3 others in the East Asian Cup qualifier against Hong Kong in 2012. He now plies his trade in Thailand so should be a good source of info come the next round of WC qualifiers.
So attached is Matt to the grassroots game that when he arrived from the UK he attached himself to the Moreton Bay Jets & Albany Creek clubs as a coach.
This is now the 31st overseas club/school to be nominated, which puts lie to the thoughts of some that this is an overseas game.
