Metro South Juniors

[Jetters]

Off-topic but what was the thought process in the MSJFL changing from U10/12/14/16 to U8/9/10/11/12/13/14/etc.?? It appears that the depth of the comp has turned to tripe since making the change and has created an ever bigger chasm between the strong and weak clubs. Baffling.

Its not really baffling, with 2 year age gaps the competition was too small to accomodate the number of kids looking to play. Since the change participation has increased.

There is an issue of the gap between the strong and the weak clubs. However, do you put that down to the management of the club or decisions made by the league?

My club wasn't a founding club of the competition but has managed to develop into the equal biggest club. Glenunga are also relatively new to the league and are growing at a steady rate. During the time other clubs have not developed or have diminished. It would seem that club management is the ultimate factor in determining clubs strength rather than these changes.

Also, for what its worth, its the clubs who decide which grades they want.

Is it just me or does anyone else think edwardstown know they made a mistake going to sfl but too proud to admit it?

scottroo i am with you. The club didnt like the relegation/promotion system of the SAAFL and went to an easier option. They get most of their juniors from the private schools who arent allowed to play on Saturdays but those players like to play on a Sunday. the games i always enjoyed coaching was against edwardstown.

All grades Zed, that's what I heard 2 days ago. "All EFC juniors will be in SFL in 2013". Reckon they got an ultimatum from SFL. There will be more to come though cos there is some very, very unhappy people. Maybe they will come to the Lions mate, that's US not you.

Glandore doesn't get used on a Sunday does it?

no doubt about it..that was the original agreement..

any disgruntled townies juniors are welcome at CLG yankman

CLG hosted the MSJFL 8-10's carnival a few weeks back and it was a great day for the club and league..5-6 teams next year we hope..

Just on that Zed, Mitchell Park have struggled a bit to get juniors to the club. Not sure why it's a great family club with 1st class facilities and a now successful senior programme. So anyone out there, come on down, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Your kidding right?

And Zed, if you guys can consolidate 4 teams you have done well. Clubs time and time again attempt to fast track their junior development to see it fail. Glenunga are a good example of a club at the moment in the MSJFL who are being patient with there development, but are steadily going in the right direction.

jetters, i think most parents and delegates around the mjsfl would agree, the CLGFC junior regime is on the way up and possibly the best run in the league

Yes it has certainly turned around.

The best in the league, probably not. Also unfair to judge when you have much less work to do compared to the bigger clubs.

[scottroo]

we dont claim to be a powerhouse junior club, as a club with a smaller player ratio, we can make sure each kid gets a fair crack each week, a more personalised coaching program. Our junior and seniors have a great relationship, as seen at the carnival a few weeks back where over 35 senior players helped on bbqs etc. Our juniors also like to get to senior games and into the rooms after the games. The kids idolise the seniors at CLG, which is great for the club

No it doesnt.

No it doesnt.

So if a new junior club popped up and could sort it out with WOS they could probably play there then.

Would have to also negotiate with the Marion council and the cricket club that also uses the oval.
