Hi, my name is Rhys Bowers and I play football for Marist Green 12th grade team.
The best thing about football is that it keeps me fit and it's a good game.
The worst thing about it is washing my boots every week.
When I'm not playing sport, I like to make Lego models or play PlayStation or read books.
We warm up for the game every week by stretching and practise our kicks by trying to beat our goalie.
My best memory of playing football came last year came when I set up a goal to draw a game ... we lost most of our games last year so it was a big moment.
Sometimes before a game I eat left-over Chinese because we often have Chinese on a Friday night.
I don't really have any aims for the future with football, I just want to keep having fun and enjoying myself.
YOUNG FAN
