When my son was playing Auskick and even into the under 10s, there was this girl who was chunky. Not fat. Just well built. She could kick the ball better and further that any of the boys. She was fast too, both in speed and thinking. I never knew her name and I always wonder is she running around in a team today. She would be 20 now.Well I had no pathway to professional sport on account of having no real talent but I remember a girl on my cricket team who was easily the best player on our team. I did not think about it at the time (since I was 12) but it must have sucked for her not to really have any access to playing professionally one day.
