Macarthur FC Bulls chairman Gino Marra has no doubt a competition to discover the area’s football superstars of tomorrow will be a big hit.

Be our next Football Star was launched last week alongside the Bulls’ major community partner, Macarthur Square.

“The Be our next Football Star competition really highlights the core values of both Macarthur FC and Macarthur Square – families and football coming together,’’ says Mr Marra.

“We have some tremendously talented junior boys and girls playing in our region and I’m looking forward to seeing all the entries.”

Be our next Football Star is open to girls and boys aged 8 to 13 years with exceptional skills and passion for the sport.

To enter, parents or guardians must upload a short video of their child demonstrating their best football skills to their Facebook or Instagram accounts, tagging both Macarthur Square and Macarthur FC with the hashtag #mfcstars and saying why they should be our next football star.

Entries, which opened last Thursday, will close at 11.59pm on Sunday, October 25.

Prizes for the winners of Be our next Football Star are:

  • behind the scenes experience at Macarthur FC team training session;
  • one-on-one training session with a Macarthur FC player;
  • feature in a Macarthur Square and Macarthur FC video that will play across social channels, websites and in centre at Macarthur Square;
  • Macarthur FC merchandise pack valued at $100;
  • Family dining experience at Macarthur Square, valued at $200.

“Macarthur Square is proud to be a major community partner and the home of Macarthur FC – a team of our very own, playing right in the heart of our community,’’ says Trevor Hill, centre manager of the iconic shopping centre in Campbelltown.

 “The Be our next Football Star competition is a great opportunity for any passionate and young local footy fans to also be part of the team, get some training from professional players and get a peek behind the scenes.”
