ABOUT
Amy Schembri
Amy Schembri has spent a great deal of her life at a football pitch. Her writing journey began when she observed children as young as eight having to fight ferociously for a spot in their football team, when they should be simply enjoying the game for the sake of it.
Amy lives in Melbourne with her husband and three sons. When not at a football game, she works in Human Resources, enjoys finding time to read, and attempts to keep her home in good working order.
