Aaron Zimmerle’s sporting journey has taken him from Australia to Las Vegas this week, wearing Canadian colours.
The Canadian-born, Australia-based Zimmerle will coach the Canada Wolverines in a rugby league international against the USA Hawks on Friday in Sin City.
The game is part of the festivities surrounding the kickoff of Australia’s National Rugby League (NRL) season on U.S. soil Saturday. The Manley Sea Eagles take on the South Sydney Rabbitohs before the Sydney Roosters face the Brisbane Broncos at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders.
