Graham Fyfe, MSHS  Football Excellence Support Officer- “…We’ve got the facilities, the coaches, the programs,  the opportunities. But what I did notice was there was a lot of talented kids who couldn’t get to an NPL or local clubs for whatever reason, we want more kids touching the ball in good environments, It would be ideal for our kids to be at your club (LMFC), so outside of school they’re getting looked after. and when they’re at school they’re getting looked after”

Luis Melgar, LMFC Football Operations Manager- “We’ve been reflecting on the 10 years of the club (next year is our 10 year anniversary) , we’ve sat down recently on what’s next and part of that is our junior/youth base of the club. We got ourselves in a position of decent numbers in our MiniRoos and seniors. We’re now in a position to start to bring in some of these local kids through and give them access to club structure and creating good people through football.”
