Hi Olly

We are still in the Uk at the moment but we're hoping to head to Brisbane when we get our visas. My son is 12 and he also wants to know if there are any cricket clubs he can join, he also wants to join clubs to do rock climbing, surfing, kayaking, lifesaving and Ju Jitsu!

He uses Poms in Oz sometimes so you can send him a Private Message if you want to chat - that's if he can wrestle me away from the computer!!! His Poms in Oz usename is Mophead.

Sport is HUGE over here, i kind of forgot how big it was. Your school you start will almost definitley have a cricket team and also basketball.
My school just had it's sports day (today in fact, tuesday) and despite so many people taking the day off (all we did was sit on the field all day) it was pretty amzing.
Hope that helps!
