 So my name is Mark Nada, I play Central Defender and I've been here ever since the academy started. Crookie brought me to the club when I was in the Under 14s and played pretty much every age group up until first grade, everything really, so yeah it's just worked hard every training every game to get where I am and to get rewarded is a good feeling. Ah yeah so once the season restarted after COVID I was part of the in the A-League bubble so I was training with the first team every day. The training was an excellent experience and there's some excellent players that especially last year who I trained with, Shweggler, one of the best players, he's world-class really, he played at the highest level and just just being around him in the in the facilities and just listening to everything he does and how he trains, how he warms up, even every little part it's it's good to learn from. It's incredible. I remember a lot even maybe two years ago we were our change rooms were under the stadium of a of an athletics track and now we're we're here with these all these fields and we have this excellent gym perfect change rooms we have we have everything you need to progress yourself really. Youth is a massive part of the club I think ever since I've been here they've always been pushing the young players to play up age groups playing at the highest level possible and it's really evident when you see the amount of players getting these scholarship contracts from the NYL and the first-grade team so yeah youth has been a massive part since I've been here. Well the plan is just to hopefully firstly make my debut and then push for a push for a spot week in week out with it on the bench or eventually hopefully in the starting lineup. It's been incredible. That's your your dream as a kid when ever since you were five years old playing at your local club that's where you want to be you want to be playing in the big stadiums in the big games and just win the championship.
