Auditions: Football Superstar

FOX8 is again on the hunt for males aged 16-21 to compete in a new Football Superstar series.

The third series will see a winner given a contract with Brisbane Roar and a one year university scholarship.

No hosts have been announced for the third series, with Brian McFadden now a judge on Australia’s Got Talent.

Former Australian Youth team coach Angus Postecoglou, who will oversee the training, said, “There are a lot of kids out there with talent but what I’m looking for is someone with outstanding ability and technique. They must also possess the mental determination and vigour that sets them at the top of the game. If that person can keep himself in the forefront of our minds – he will be our ultimate winner.”

Series Two winner Luke Pilkington (pictured, centre) played his debut match with Melbourne Victory against North Queensland last December.

“The opportunity and exposure Football Superstar has given me has literally changed my life,” he said. “I have gone from playing with my local football club in Canberra to training full time alongside professionals everyday. It doesn’t get much better than that. Anyone that is serious about a career in playing football should turn up for try-outs and give it a shot.”
