Wednesday Warriors is the dramatic account of six young footballers as they strive to etch their names in the tradition of the famous St. Patrick’s College Ballarat. Enriching their story are the memories of past players who made their names in the Big League.

Inspired by an idealistic and courageous coach the boys of 2009 aspire to the ultimate prize in Victorian Schoolboy Football. While some dream of the draft, others look to define their identity and friendships through Australia’s greatest code and to MAKE THEIR OWN HISTORY.

At a time when footballers are often making news for the wrong reasons Wednesday Warriors offers a reminder of the positives that can come through sacrifice, teamwork, mateship and youthful idealism. This is the football that underpins the professional ranks raw, emotional and all about the jumper.

“The St Pat's culture of winning was the envy of all schools and clubs in the Ballarat Area. It has produced VFL Brownlow Medallists, club captains, premiership players and above all some truly decent citizens..." Collingwood Coach - Mick Malthouse.

"A footballer's ability, attitude and approach to life is shaped by where he comes from. From behind the scenes, Wednesday Warriors weaves together the past, the future and the emotional, eventful present of the St Pat's football team." Emma Quayle, The Age

 “A fantastic read. It brought back memories of running to the school canteen to find my name on the team sheet and dreaming of one day playing on the MCG. It reminds us how history and traditions can create the passion that inspires young men to create their own moments in history.” James McDonald, Captain - Melbourne FC
