From Mount Gambier To Athens

A huge congratulations to my cousin Carmel for her selection in the Hockeyroos (the Australian Women's Hockey Team) to defend their title at the Athens Olympics in August!! She came so close to playing in Sydney and narrowly missed out at the last minute, so we are all very proud and excited for her.

The road has been long and arduous and she has had to give up a lot to get there, but she is playing at the peak of her performance and so the honour of representing her country is well deserved.

Way to go Carmel! Lap up the atmosphere and enjoy the experience - we will be shouting our support so loudly while watching your games on TV in Melbourne that you just might be able to hear us all the way over there in Greece...
