Guillaume and Arnold Castillo, soccer's son and father internet sensations, have created a showcase of young Australian footballing talent with their Instagram hit, @au.ballerz. At any game, you can see them filming - Guillaume, all of 15 years, conducting his world famous endearing interviews with other young trojans, basking in the spotlight of their youthful footballing fame. It's a labour of love for Arnold and 16 year old Guillaume, who lost their wife and mother Gael back in January of this year. And yet @au.ballerz has forged a bond between them that lifts them to heights unimagined - events, travel, autographs, gigs. And with the 2026 World Cup in their sights, it's time to tell everyone the story of @au.ballerz as its come so far, as the social media sensation turns not only it's makers, but its subjects, into the footballing stars they all imagine they could be.
