When my young bloke was playing in one of these so called elite things i would often wonder how many kids don't get a crack because they don't have the money or the means to travel to training if one of these are not nearby.
We were fortunate that i was earning a reasonable sum and we had the luxury of two vehicles and the costs and the running around was not an issue , there were plenty of very handy kids with a ball at there feet who were nowhere near as fortunate in there circumstances.
Just say'n.
