I know CLG havent been in div 4 since the early nineties and want to rectify that and to achieve that need to attract better players - hence a more professional approach to achieving that. It may not happen this year but they are on the right track.
Bloozebrother, you are one serious div 6 footballer!
What would be your prediction about where the CLG FC will be in a few years time?
Just out of curiousity from the position of a local rival club.[/quote]
Jetters, im football director at CLGFC, im not going to put a prediction on what division we will be in, in 5 years. We have such a young group which allot of people in div 6 would regard quite highly. We need to keep this group together and continue to recruit good qaulity footballers and people. My personal goals is for the club to have 100 registered senior footballers, with full support staff for 3 teams. We have some fantastic people incharge of the junior club, the work troy, dean etc are doing is outstanding. Our Auskick is award winning and a great platform to start with. We must grow our junior to having atleast 6 teams 8s 9s 10s 12s 14s and 17s. Next year we will have 5 junior sides. At club level, id like to see us in a good financial situation, succesful social functions (we had over 100 people at our ball this year)
In the past we have been known to have a reputation of being a little thuggish, we have completely changed our image and today are one of the best behaved teams in the SAAFL and MSJFL, We look forward to the challenge and WILL be succesful and look forward to playing Unley, Mitcham etc in the not so distant future
