Paige Edwards has been selected to take part in the Coerver Coaching Asia Pacific Boys U13 Squad that will tour Spain in June. Paige will take part in the Costa Blanca Cup and San Sebastian Cup, which has teams from all around the world taking part. Spain has such a strong futsal and football culture which will only further enhance her passion for both sports. Spain is also the home of Joma, Spain’s leading producer of sports apparel and is famous for its futsal shoes, which Paige wears on the futsal court.

The young Pirate is a member of the U14 Hornets Girls AGS and is no stranger when it comes to mixing it with the boys on the futsal court. As part of their pre season training cycle, the elite girls in the club often play against the older boys, so being selected for a boy’s team does not faze Paige at all. In fact she is looking forward to the challenge.

Paige started playing football for Sandringham when she was nine and took up futsal a year later. Since then she has compiled an impressive CV for someone so young. She has competed in the FFV Champions League for the South East Cougars, competed at the SSA Championships in Canberra and has been in two FFV State Futsal Squads that have competed at the Nationals, captaining the U12s in January. She has also put in some impressive performances in the Melbourne Futsal League and the annual FFV State Club Championships in Bendigo over the last two years.

Paige and her team mates are excited about the forth coming MFL season, but they are going to have to play without her for a few weeks while she mixes it with the boys in sunny Spain. She just loves her futsal and football; that’s all she wants to do!

Paige is all ready to go for the Pirates in the 2012 MFL season, which kicks off on April 28.
