SYDNEY -- Heavy rainfall in Sydney over 12 hours into early Thursday morning forced changes to the practice schedules for California and Hawaii just two days away from their college football season-opener at the Olympic stadium.Both teams were scheduled to hold open practice sessions at the stadium in western Sydney on Thursday, but falls of up 50 to 100 millimeters of rain (two to four inches) late Wednesday and overnight forced organizers to keep the players off the turf.Hawaii was given a chance to practice at the University of New South Wales but because it was about an hour away toward the city and into busy traffic, decided to cancel their practice session and did a walk-through later in the day in preparation for Saturdays game.We would have spent more time in traffic than at the practice, Hawaii team spokesman Derek Inouchi said.California held a light workout at the same ground Thursday ahead of Fridays final training session for the game which organizers say is expected to attract a crowd of about 65,000.We worked through it, Cal coach Sonny Dykes said after Wednesdays rainy training session on the synthetic turf at the University of New South Wales field.We had a bit of rain, and bit of cold, not the best weather conditions. Dykes added as the rain pelted down on a tin roof above him. Anytime you travel 24 hours there are going to be some obstacles, but overall weve done a good job of adjusting.The weather forecast for Saturday is for a 50 percent chance of some light rain and a high temperature of 19 degrees Celsius (66 Fahrenheit).The game is set to start at midday Saturday, which will be 10 p.m. Friday on the east coast of the U.S., 7 p.m. in California and 4 in the afternoon for the Hawaii home fans in the mid-Pacific. It was brought to Sydney in an attempt to increase support for so-called gridiron in Australia, a country which keenly follows the National Football League and has provided several players, mostly punters and kickers from Australian rules football, to NFL teams.Its only the third college game played in Australia -- the previous two were in Melbourne in the 1980s. The last U.S. football match played in Sydney was in 1999 when the Denver Broncos beat the San Diego Chargers 20-17 in a preseason game at the Olympic stadium which attracted more than 73,000 spectators.Saturdays crowd, which will feast on foot-long hot dogs and other menu favorites from the U.S., will see experienced quarterbacks start the game.Davis Webb, who Dykes has already named in the starting role, is one of the key Cal additions this year, replacing Jared Goff, the No. 1 overall NFL draft pick by the Los Angeles Rams.A graduate transfer from Texas Tech, Webb played in 23 games with 14 starts over three seasons and career totals of 5,557 yards and 46 touchdowns. Hes enrolled in Cals public health Masters program.Ikaika Woolsey beat out three other Hawaii quarterbacks to get the nod for the starting role in Sydney from new coach Nick Rolovich. In his senior year, he has had 19 starts for the Rainbow Warriors.The Rodeo, California-born Woolsey will lead Hawaiis contingent on Saturday in a familiar pre-game ritual that many Australian rugby fans will recognize.New Zealands famed All Blacks rugby team do a Maori-inspired haka, or war dance, on the same field whenever they play Australias Wallabies in rugby union matches. But that only usually involves the starting 15 players.On Saturday, the entire Hawaii squad numbering nearly 100 players will take to the field about 20 minutes before kickoff to do the haka that is compulsory for all team members to learn.Its the seventh consecutive year that Hawaii, a member of the Mountain West conference, will open against a Pac-12 opponent. They are 2-4 over that span.California has a better record, going 7-2 in season openers since 2007, including a 73-14 home win at Berkeley last year over Grambling State. Overall, the Golden Bears are 75-42-4 in all-time season openers. Kurtis MacDermid Kings Jersey .

MANCHESTER, England -- After categorically stating that Wayne Rooney is not for sale, new Manchester United manager David Moyes was less forthcoming Friday about what the striker plans to do ahead of the upcoming Premier League season. Rooneys future has been mired in uncertainty since he told Alex Ferguson that he wanted a transfer before the managers surprise retirement in May. The 27-year-old Rooney had grown frustrated at being dropped and substituted in key matches as Robin van Persie emerged as Uniteds leading striker on the charge to a record-extending 20th English title. But with two years remaining on Rooneys contract, United doesnt appear willing to allow the Moyes era to begin with a leading player joining a rival club. "Wayne is not for sale," Moyes said at his first news conference since replacing Ferguson. "Hes a Manchester United player and he will remain a Manchester United player." When asked if Rooney had told him categorically that he no longer wanted to leave, Moyes responded evasively: "I can tell you categorically Wayne Rooney is training fantastically well in the last two days, thats all I can categorically tell you." Rooney is yet to publicly discuss his push to leave United, which was first revealed by Ferguson, opting not to address the issue among his many tweets over the summer or when interviewed during Uniteds Premier League trophy parade in May. Moyes was Everton manager when Rooney was reluctantly sold to Fergusons United in 2004. The pair appear to be back on good terms despite Moyes launching successful legal action against Rooney about allegations in the players autobiography about his Everton departure. "I have known Wayne since he was 16 and some of you were probably at my early press conferences at Everton -- its a little bit of deja vu actually, its a similar sort of feeling," Moyes said from Old Trafford. "But Ive had several meetings with Wayne. He is training brilliantly well, hes come back inn good shape (from the summer break) and I really look forward to working with him.dddddddddddd" Its less certain how willing the United fans would be to embrace Rooney again. Rooney asked to quit United in 2010, but backed down after negotiating a new and improved contract with the club. Moyes appears willing to disregard what Rooney told Ferguson before the 71-year-old Scotsman retired after more than 26 years in charge at United. "We have spoken several times and as far as I see it, whatever happened before with Wayne has gone -- we are working together," Moyes said. "I see a glint in his eye. He looks happy. I think he looks as if hes saying, Im going to knuckle down and get myself right." Moyes repeatedly highlighted how Rooney, with 197 goals for United, can catch Bobby Charltons club-record 249 and Denis Laws 237. The first target is reaching Jack Rowleys 211 goals. "It isnt too difficult to get the goals, and if he can do that he will be seen in the same light as many of those people," Moyes said. "Im more than happy to work with him and make sure we get success. We are working and we are trying everything we can to make sure we can to get Wayne to the level we think (he can reach)." Rooney will also be keen to retain his starting spot in the England team as World Cup qualifying enters its final stages. "Its for everyones benefit we will try to get him to the (good) condition and that state where hes much more like the Wayne Rooney we all know and I am looking forward to making that happen," Moyes said. Captain Nemanja Vidic remains in the dark about Rooneys grievances. "I havent really talked to him about him or his future, but what I can see is that Wayne trained really well in the last few days," Vidic said alongside Moyes. "He is in very good shape, I think hes the best shape in the last five years and I am looking forward to seeing him play for the club and doing his best." ' ' '
