Great find well done. I wonder which of Hammond, Chambers or Borgnis is the Kiwi lineage? Automatically comes into reckoning for the next U20 WC (2025)? Note is born May 2003

FYI - my 26 yr old nephew played senior mens grade here on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland for Kawana FC, they made the final (sadly lost to Noosa) which is a good effort considering half the team were 18 yr olds. Two of the youngsters missed a chunk of the season away in the UK training at the Fleetwood Town Academy. Then they missed the final for a trial opportunity in the UAE, which came about from their time in the UK. So joining the dots.......

Wiki rabbit hole - but story of Fleetwood United (UAE 2nd Divsion) & their former dodgy owner (who also owned Fleetwood Town at one point) is an interesting yarn. The UAE version have a Kiwi keeper Brandon Sumpter.
