That's interesting.
Not really interesting, SACA notes Gawler (postcode 5118) as Northern METRO....Barossa postcodes are Northern COUNTRY.
So anyone at a Gawler club can go to any of the 4 clubs nearby? is that what youre saying?
Maybe that needs to get changed for starters to aid the Jets. The Jets try to work with the B&LCA but if all they are doing is developing kids for other clubs you could understand them feeling aggrieved by this. Seems crazy that in a country association not all the clubs are aligned to the same district club. I think there is other clubs in the association aligned with Woodville.
YES!...my understanding is that it goes on residential postcode not clubs.
If a player is below 18 years (on 1st September of the current season) and has not previously played in any SACA Premier Cricket competitions, he/she is eligible to play for the Club in his/her residential qualification or for another Club that shares a metropolitan boundary with this Club, which are listed below:
Northern Districts:
Port Adelaide, Prospect, Tea Tree Gully
In theory anybody in the Northerns country zone (Barossa, etc) who meets the criteria above can also go to ANY of the 4 clubs as listed above.
On this basis Northerns appear to have done very well given bugger all senior players from their country zone appear to be playing senior cricket at other clubs.
