Tom Sermanni and Matildas stars assist in Football Stars of Tomorrow
Sermanni and his two star Matildas took the NSW Under 14 Girls through some skills and drills and offered expert tips in assisting the hopeful youngsters with their game.
The NSW Under 14 Girls side had a successful 2009 as they took out the National Junior titles in Canberra in April after finishing first in their group having recorded five wins, one draw, scoring eight goals and conceding none in what was a spectacular tournament for the rising stars.
As for the two Matildas, much success has seen the girls rise to fame in 2009.
Khamis is gearing up for another season in the W-League with Sydney FC and is hoping to emulate the success she had in her first year after she finished the inaugural W-League season?s top scorer with seven goals winning the Golden Boot award.
While for Simon, her terrific performances with the Central Coast Mariners W-League squad caught the attention of many and the 18-year-old was selected for the Matildas squad in 2008 where she has since been part of Sermanni?s squad and has been earmarked as being the future of women?s football in Australia.
The screening of this segment is set out for Episode 5 which will be shown on Sunday 26th July at 2pm on Channel 9.
