Our son had a totally fantastic time in Australia which helped transform him from a schoolboy into an independent adult ready to go onto the next stage in his life. From his point of view he has said " this was the best 6 months I have ever had". He made great friends with both local Australians and with other Sport Lived participants. He thoroughly enjoyed playing club cricket in Melbourne and learned a great deal from the coaches in cricket academy. The whole experience from finding new friends to meeting challenges in sport, living and exploring a new country was so memorable and rewarding for him. His only dissatisfaction was the particular accommodation in which he was based.
