YOUNG HUNTER KEEPER WITH BIG ASPIRATIONS

The Hunter is well known for producing football talent and Aberglasslyn’s Koby Walker is determined to add his name to the list.
The 11-year-old travelled to Hawaii in November with the Australian junior futsal team, and he’s already been chosen for two more overseas tournaments in 2016.
“Monday I train with Andrew, Tuesday Hawks, Wednesday futsal and Andrew, Thursday Hunter Valley Hawks and Friday’s my day off.”
His coach says Koby has the determination to become a professional.
“I believe he’s got the attitude so a lot of things we say to him he’s taking on board which is why he’s progressing so quick.”
