Last Wednesday we were very lucky to have 3 players come to visit us as part of the Carlton Football Clubs Community Camp to Kyabram (try saying that fast 3 times!!).

Andrew,  Eddie   and Paul   talked to us about where they had grown up and their football careers.

We learnt that:

  • Andrew is from Bridgewater near Bendigo
  • Eddie and Paul are both  from Western Australia
  • Eddie came to Melbourne with his Mum when he was 15 years old.
  • Eddie is Carlton’s leading goal kicker. He has kicked 215 goals.
  • Andrew was recruited from Richmond.
  • The Carlton players helped out at Andrew’s family farm last year by building new fences.

      

We got to go outside and have a kick with the players. It was a great afternoon.

          

What footy team do you barrack for?
