Sinopsis

Born with cerebral palsy, Callala Bay's Ben Atkins endured a tough time growing up - that was until he found the sport of football and more specifically, the Pararoos. Since making his debut 2008 against Canada, the Shoalhaven High School alumnus has gone on to play for the Pararoos on 70 occasions, which includes three World Cup appearances. Ahead of his team's historic clash with Canada - the first time the Pararoos have played on home soil in 19 years - Courtney Ward caught up with the 28-year-old to chat up the high and lows of his inspiring career.
