Episode 43 John CropperWelcome everybody to episode 43 of the Football United vs Soccer City podcast. I would like to sincerely thank all the interviewees, listeners and the soccer public of the Illawarra, Australia and the World who download this podcast. Additionally I would like to say thank you to the people who contribute, comment and reminisce on the social media pages. Please note if you have a person you think I should interview please message me directly on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter.This episode’s interviewee John Cropper was born in 1954 and grew up in Tarrawanna. Prior to exploring John’s own football journey we conversed about his Family’s involvement with Tarrawanna Soccer Club. John’s Dad and Uncle were life members of Tarrawanna Soccer Club and his Dad was instrumental with other volunteers in excavating and constructing the current day Tarrawanna Oval, a beautiful suburban soccer ground.After exploring the Cropper connection to football in the Illawarra, John then details his junior career with Tarrawanna, the Illawarra representative team and his high school team. His description of the annual junior gala day is memorable to say the least. Additionally in this section of the interview we discuss John’s vivid recollections of watching Balgownie and South Coast United play at their respective grounds when he was growing up.His senior football career in the 1970s with Tarrawanna, South Coast United, Balgownie and Tarrawanna again was a fantastic listen, in particular his 1974 season with the Balgownie club under George Ramage. After the 1976 season with Tarrawanna John had several years away from the game to focus on another passion of his, elite level long distance running. In the early 1980s when John was living in the Blue Mountains due to his vocation as a teacher he played with Springwood in the Nepean League and with Penrith in the state league. This was not John’s last game as a player, he played in his early forties when he was coaching Woonona Soccer Club in the early 1990s.The rest of the interview delves into John’s coaching career, which has so many parts to it. I apologise to you the listener that I couldn’t discuss all of John’s coaching appointments. However we do discuss his first coaching appointment as an 18 year old when he coached an U16 Tarrawanna team, parts of his school coaching career (in Sydney and down here in the Illawarra) and his coaching appointments at Woonona JSC, Thirroul JSC, Woonona SC, Wollongong Olympic SC, Bulli FC and Thirroul Thunder. Please note this is not an exhaustive list of all of John’s coaching appointments.It is clear after listening to John, that he has a deep passion for passing on his love of the game through his coaching. He has coached over a long period and he continues to enjoy helping people learn, improve and enjoy their football. I am in awe of a person like John who has contributed so much to our game in the Illawarra and to record his football journey was an absolute pleasure. My respect goes out to him for allowing me the time to speak with him for over two hours. I hope you enjoy the interview as much as I enjoyed recording it.

Welcome everybody to episode 38 of the Football United vs Soccer City podcast. As always I would like to sincerely thank all the interviewees, listeners and the soccer public of the Illawarra/Australia who download this podcast. Additionally I would like to say thank you to the people who contribute, comment and reminisce on the social media pages.This episode’s interviewee was born in 1928 and has had an enormous positive impact on the Illawarra soccer landscape for over 80 years. Neville Arrowsmith has played the game for Tarrawanna, Wollongong Technical College, the Illawarra District, Bellambi and Fernhill. In the 1950s he was involved with Fernhill’s Committee before spending over two decades on the Illawarra District Soccer Association as President, Vice-President, Secretary, Publicity Officer and Committee member with numerous delegate positions. And Neville was awarded Life Membership to the IDSA in 1963.Neville was one of the foundation board members of the Wollongong City Wolves that saw the region back in the National Soccer League in 1980. And with the hard work he contributed along with the other foundation board members, he managed the Wollongong City youth team for 9 years and is a Life Member of the Club.Over his soccer journey he has coached and managed Illawarra junior representative teams with great success and joy. Another aspect of Neville’s contribution to the game is his recording, publication and archiving of Illawarra soccer’s history, notably his book “An incomplete history of the 100 years of association football in the Illawarra District” and the Corrimal Rangers SC centenary book.It is impossible in this introduction and the interview to cover the entire list of positions or impacts Neville has had on our game in the Illawarra. In the brief time I spent with Neville and his son Martin it was great to talk about some of his immense soccer journey. I feel honoured and humbled to have spent time with a man who has done so much and that has been an inspiration to my Illawarra soccer history work. My sincere thanks and respect go out to Neville and Martin for allowing me into Neville’s home and giving me the time to record this interview. I hope you enjoy the interview as much as I did recording it.

Welcome everyone to episode 32 of the Football United vs Soccer City podcast. The soccer public of the Illawarra should be proud of the women and men who have helped develop our game here. I hope these interviews give a little slice of our soccer history in the Illawarra across different eras and roles.This episode's interviewee has worn different hats over the years as a supporter, ball boy, player, coach, volunteer, referee, parent and mentor.Gary Masters began his involvement with the sport through his parent’s committee work at Fernhill Junior Soccer Club. Gus as he is known by most was a ball boy first and then started playing in the under 10s at Fernhill Junior Soccer Club. During this period he concurrently played in the Illawarra junior representative teams, which additionally earned him state representation and a tour of New Zealand.At a very early age he played first grade for Fernhill Soccer Club and then went onto South Coast United (playing in different grades and coaching after a serious injury), Tarrawanna and represented Illawarra in the senior ranks. As you will hear he then went onto player-coaching, coaching and refereeing roles across different clubs and levels.The passion and zest for soccer and life is ever present in Gus Masters. I have met him numerous times over the years and he is a bloke who gains people’s trust through dedication, integrity, empathy and the ability to communicate directly and sincerely all in one. As with all the interviews, Gus was wonderful to sit down with and due to his longevity in the game the podcast will be split into two parts. Publicly I thank Gus for his time and generosity with his archive and I truly hope you enjoy both parts to this interview.

Yarnsy's Cafe in Tarrawanna opened its doors in January 2017. Since launch the cafe has seen considerable success in a booming Illawarra/Wollongong area. Jariss Shead and co-owner Thomas Bailey have gradually evolved the business into a multi-functional space to cater for not only the local coffee and cafe crowd but also local artists and musicians to celebrate and nurture local talent.The popularity of the cafe has helped compliment and arguably added value the area. With the recent opening of a local beer brewer next door, Yarnsy's is working collaboratively not only with them but the other businesses in the area to ensure that not only are they benefiting but the customers also get a value added experience.I sat down with Jariss in the spacious and chilled open court area at the cafe to talk about the concept, where the inspiration and idea came from, his personal inexperience in running a business and what he did to make it all happen.What did you get out of this episode? Here’s what I learnt;1. Find the right people – Jariss had no experience running a cafe let alone a business and he didn't pretend otherwise. Jariss sought out friends who had experience to not only get insight and advice but ultimately build a partnership with his friend Tom who had many years of working/managing in cafes. Together and with advice from other friends running successful businesses in the area, they were both able to follow through on an idea and make it a reality.2. Find confidence in what you are creating – At times Jariss certainly felt the heat of the constant challenges of creating/launching a business. What kept him going through those times was focusing on what he had control over rather than external factors. Jariss is a firm believer of enthusiasm combined with a great product or service can lead to success which helped motivate him through the tougher times.3. It's never personal –Jariss learnt a valuable lesson from a fellow friend and businesses owner that the external challenges are never personal. Bills, licenses, permits, fines, notices and the mountains of paperwork are merely coming from others who are just trying to do their job. Jariss made sure that he didn't get swept up in the emotional aspect of being challenged by various providers and local council and took the approach of just 'getting it done'.4. Excite your customers – In a world of Instagram and instantaneous social media updates, Jariss ensures that their food is served in a way that people will want to take a photo of it. By encouraging and embracing the social media world, especially when it comes to foodies, Jariss is letting the food and his happy customers do the talking by posting online and tagging the cafe.Follow Yarnsy's Cafe via Facebook | Instagram |Tarrawanna (Wollongong) – 2/81 Meadow St, Tarrawanna NSW 2518
