Brisbane-based soccer club New Italian Generation Inc is currently on the hunt for new players to join them next season.
Founded in 2015 by Rome native Simone Trentino and fellow migrant and football enthusiast Francesco d’Orsa, New Italian Generation Inc provides an avenue for Italians in Australia to meet people from back home and carry on their passion for the Belpaese’s favourite sport.
