9Camillo succeeded in gaining a place and then attended eight weeks of training. He was chosen again to play against other Schools of Excellence. His great-aunt Mary (Camillo Sr.’s daughter) tells us that they are waiting to see if the youngster will play for Cardiff City Football School of Excellence.
