Ep #233 - Ben Porter - For the love of the game! (Backyards)

Join Bevo on this episode of Backyard Legends as he chats with
Ben Porter.


Ben happens to be one of the most passionate fans of the South
Australian National Football League (SANFL) and author of the
book ‘10 Clubs for 27 Years–The Golden Age of the SANFL’
which gives an insight into South Australia’s contribution
to the much-loved sport.


As well as discussing the book and how it came about, Ben also
shared stories about his father's legacy in the SANFL as a league
footballer, growing up in a family divided by football loyalties,
and his own love for the game and passion for keeping state
league football alive.


We also talked about Ben’s backyard cricket memories as a child
and how they turned an abandoned tennis court into an epic test
match, riding his bike through national parks and how life was
different back then before mobile phones.


Tune in to hear about the highs and lows of his footballjourney
and how it has shaped his life today. Pull up your deck chairs,
put your feet up, and get ready for some ripping stories with Ben
Porter.
