The Trials were supposed to be up and running on the 13th June i think. I'll double check it, but I'm not 100% sure weather or not I'm going to do it...

Here's a picture of our Under 17's in India. Looks like there's a nice blend of white and black players, which is always good to see :D

No not at all it's fine.
Erm...well I just feel like It's a huge step to take when I'm still only 18 years old. If I were to get a contract I would have to live in Zimbabwe for 6 months or so on my own, and It's something I didn't consider properly. I've never been there on my own. I've been with some friends and family, and I've got friends over there, but it's a huge step to take.
On the other side of which, It's a once in a life time opportunity, and i need to take it.
Even if i don't get on I'll get an idea as to what the facilities, structure and coaches are like.
