FCV are delighted to report Austen Cribbin-Blencowe has returned to football and is enjoying success back home in Australia after recovering from a serious injury back in January 2020.

Austen has worked very hard with his rehab and signed for a Football South Coast team Kiama F.C. in New South Wales and after initially getting back his match fitness with the Under 18’s is now in the First Team where to date he has played 4 games.
As a traditional number nine he has scored 8 goals in 6 games for the Under 18’s and 4 goals from 4 matches for the First Team and is looking to return to FCV in January when the Australian season has finished.
