It seems that the word is getting out about this little site, a lot of hits yesterday, and I hope that people found what they were looking for. Or if you see info missing, that you send it through.

The latest updates have been about World Championships, and I found a gem. I had no idea that Australia had sent teams to World Championships, before 2002. Thanks to Jenny Becker, she sent through the player list from the 1981 Junior Womens World Championship team that went to Mexico City. And after a bit if research I found that Australia has been to 5 Mens Championships (Senior & Youth) and 4 Womens Championships (Senior and Junior).  A better record than the Socceroos, surely!
