Meet Theo McFarland - the international basketball player from Samoa who is Saracens new star

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 8, 2022
Exclusive BY SIMON: Theo McFarland and his seven siblings were forced to make their own fun during their early years in Moamoa, Samoan. There was no satellite TV or internet access at the time. No one was able to buy boots and balls. They were surrounded by nature and lived off the land. 'We had a huge plot of property, so there was always something to do,' says Saracens' forward. We didn't have the funds for electronics, so we were climbing trees or playing in the river behind our house.' We'll go and catch prawns. If we'd rather use our hands, we'd make this tool with a rubber band that would catch them. So you can lift it up and go. My older brothers were really good at it. We'd be catching heaps. 'Take them home and cook them.' They grew bananas, mangoes, taro, yam, coconuts, and pawpawpaw. The siblings would walk hand in hand, no machinery, before spending hours on sports.
