You could be right
“An interested party has expressed an interest in nominating for the MWJFL Executive at the AGM.
David Evans, the President of the MSJFL has sent out an email to the delegate clubs of the MWJFL, outlining his concerns that if this interested party is elected in any capacity on the MWJFL Executive, that the combined U16 competition will not continue in 2014 and that there will no longer be any future Representative matches played between the two Leagues.
It is acknowledged that the current combined U16 competition is a vibrant competition, strongly supported by players, parents/guardians and carers and the member clubs and we would hope to see this competition continue in the best interest of both leagues and the players involved.
The MWJFL Executive have received information that our delegate clubs, have planned a special meeting with the above mentioned interested party, on Friday the 4/10/2013.
Does anyone know who the ‘interested party’ is and why MSJFL are willing to jeopardise the opportunity for young lads to play in a vibrant competition as opposed to reducing that comp back to two Mickey Mouse competitions if the interested party were to become a member of the MWJFL Executive ?????
Amateur hour
indeed, and to think MSJFL and it's syncopants are always banging on about how 'it's all about the kids'. I don't quite see how canning the U16 comp and representative games benefits the kids. Would be nice to see what the MSJFL 'concerns' are.
