Does anybody listen?

During the tour the coaching staff will write some quick comments about the games and describe some of the experience from their perspective.

Game Reports:

Good effort but the players need to get their timing right when trying to get the crowd to do the YMCA. Happy with the progress we have made.

Learn a little about the team Staff

Coach - Jürg Kihm:
Jürg comes from Switzerland, however since 2005 Jürg has been down under living in Perth. Jürg  has been coaching for approx. 16 years at all levels including many years as Swiss U/19 Women's National Coach. Jurg has been with Team Australia (both men's and women's) since 2003. When not at Floorball Jürg is either down the beach with a Boost or in Northbridge dressed in his Indian outfit dancing to music only he can hear.
 
Coach - Grant Mead:
Grant comes from Perth, Australia and has been part of the coaching staff since WFC 2005. Currently Grant is travelling Europe to gain more experience and generally just on some crazy adventure. When Grant gets free time from Floorball he cant wait to get into his favourite Cowboy outfit.
 
Coach - Oliver Bachofen:
Oli is from Switzerland where he is current coach of Swiss NLA team FB Riders. Oli was assistant coach for Team Australia (men's) during WFC 2006, When not busy with Floorball Oli likes to dress up like the Construction Worker from the Village People.

Team Manager - Kevan Lyons:
Kevan originally comes from Perth but is now living in Prague, Czech Republic. Kevan has been with Team Australia since WFC 2005. Better known as "Kimba the White Lyon" and being king of the jungle doesnt allow Kevan much free time but when he does he doesn't miss a chance to hit the Prague club scene dressed as a Motorcycle Cop, he is that impressive even Eric Estrada has asked for style advice.
 
Team Masseur - Pino Cantore:
Pino hailes from Switzerland and has been with Team Australia since WFC 2004. Pino is a masseur for Swiss NLA team Kloten-Jets. Once he finishes massaging aching muscles Pino races home, showers then walks into the Zurich hot spots dressed in his famous black leather pants, leather vest and leather cap and dances up a storm.
 
Team Masseur - Matt Davie:
Matt is Victorian born and bred, he is the newest edition in an official role within Team Australia however Matt was a fantastic supporter during WFC 2005. Matt is the quiet one in the team however our very reliable sources tell us in his private life he is quite the party starter dressed in his alter ego Village People outfit as the Military Man.
