Football is much more than a game for Lachlan Sepping - “it’s a lifestyle”.

The 15-year-old from St Clair is a star of the future.

Last year he was selected to play representative football at a national level with the Australian Joeys under 17s.

He was also selected in the NSW team for the Australian All Schools tournament where he was named Player of the Tournament.

“To play for your country is the obvious best feeling one can have,” Lachlan said. “To be able to do it so young, there is no other bigger achievement.”

Lachlan also made his first grade debut earlier this year with Club Marconi.

The club has provided valuable financial support to Lachlan, assisting with the costs associated with travel, equipment and training.

Lachlan is the latest nominee for the Mt Druitt Standard Local Sports Stars award, which are on until August 31. Prizes will be awarded to athletes aged 18 and under across four categories: Junior Sports Star Individual, Junior Sports Star Team, Young Sporting Spirit Individual and Young Sporting Spirit Team.

There is also a Service To Sport category.
