Guest martinbrisbane Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Hi all, we moved over to Brisbane from Scotland at end of May and have now managed to get sorted with jobs, place to stay (Wavell Heights), school for our 4 year old daughter anda car. Now just need to get some mates! Im 37 and love my football (the real stuff :-), running, cycling, and maybe even the odd game of golf - though I'm really crap! Ideally would be great to meet up with some fellow Scots and Brits for coffee, BBQ, trip to the park at the weekend. Got a new phone and no-one to put in it! Game of five-a-sides one night during the week would be amazing but think I may be asking for too much... Hope to hear from you soon Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Hi Martin We aren't far from you. I'll see if I can send you a PM but not sure if you'll be able to reply as I think you might need to have a certain amount of posts. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GeorgeD Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Game of five-a-sides one night during the week would be amazing but think I may be asking for too much... Have a look at this website http://www.brisbaneindoorsports.com.au/index.html Albion isn't too far from Wavell Heights. I play in a similar place in Darra, but live down in Logan. People drop in and ask to be put in a team and they make up teams in their leagues normally. Give tehma call. I think you've just missed the start of their season, but don't let that put you off. Or wander down with your gear on, there are always teams short of players. They normally play with subs who rotate, so if there are 5/6/7 players most teams are happy for another guy to join in.
