An opportunity exists for some of your country football legends to represent their country!!
The Southern Slugs International Football Club has a team entered in the 2018 Shanghai Cup. The Southern Slugs is an Australian Rules Football team that purely exists to provide Australian Rules Footballers, who have achieved all there is in football, the opportunity to go next level, and represent their region, their State and their Country, in an Overseas Location!!
The 2018 Shanghai Cup matchday will be an AFLX Tournament..... AFL's version of Crickets Big Bash!
In 2017 we sent an Over 35's team over to participate in the 12 a side competition they held the day before the Port Adelaide v Gold Coast match. We had over 2,000 country football matches played amongst our premier 6 Country Football Legends that played. This is a link to Slugs 2017 Shanghai Tour film footage, packaged up by our tour cameraman, Christopher Warman... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zl_-qzX2EB_ZArv9hEdbuNXu-X0XhnX9/view?usp=drivesdk
In 2018 there's no certainty that there will be a Over 35's division, but there will be a Open Age Competition. This has meant last minute opportunities have opened up for players from across Australia, in the 26 to 38 age bracket. This presents in incredible opportunity for country lads from different States of Australia to get to go away to represent their country together, on Jiangwan Studium in Shanghai, China on Sunday, 20th May.
We are primarily looking for those in the 26 to 38 age bracket. Its by the age of 26 that some achievements in football have been racked up, and in the Open Age Division of AFL Asia Tournaments, players play up until the age of 40 plus.
Entry level... a Mail Medal, Club Best & Fairest, Representative matches, 150 Club matches played!
We have applied to enter a Shanghai Cup Over 35's AFLX Team as well. There is the foundation of a team ready to go. We just need a few more Mature Age Footballers who can take a week off work to fill a few spots in the team.
Who do you know that deserves this representative opportunity?
We are also looking for footballers for our Over 35's, Over 47's, & Over 55's for the Bali AFL Masters Tournament (June Long Weekend, Thursday 9th to Monday 11th).
The 2018 Masters Football Carnival in Bali, will represent the 14th Year this event has been held, & the first time it will be held over 3 days!!
It's an Australasia Over 35's Football Institution... A Masters Footballer's "Happy Place"! There's no selection criteria here. This is also our most affordable tour..... very cheap!
The Shanghai itinerary is attached, along with the extra 3 nights in Hong Kong option itinerary. Some of us are keen to checkout the famous Wednesday Night Hong Kong Races at the amazing Happy Valley Race Track, on Hong Kong lsland. The Sponsorship Packages that are available make this week long trip Asian Tour very affordable.
