    For Orange County's Martin "Mini Mart" Mondia it all began six years ago when Leigh Swansborough gave him a footy from her Australian holiday. "She taught me how to play the game. My knees would be so sore from kicking drills but what was numbing the pain was the feeling of how much I was loving this game! We decided to take on this journey even though people didn't take it seriously. The goal here is to create something special so people will take this sport seriously outside Australia!"

    Mondia and Swansborough explore the cultural differences between Australians and Americans, no to mention examing characteristics of American players that are attracted to the game. Underneath the rugged Australian male persona, lies a hidden sensity that many may never see, while the Intenisty of the American players is so often misunderstood and misinterpretted.
    Many ex-pat Aussies are trying to relive or fulfil their boyhood dreams of playing footy, while the Americans players are creating theirs.
    Aussies may not fully appreciate their footy fields back home, until they step onto a gopher hole ridden paddock, with pvc pipes as posts.
