Maybe you should speak with some of the parents that he has burnt along the way as well kids that have left the game because of it. With all due respect, why would I do that? Diego was the only one that saw something a bit extra in my boy and developed it. He provided us with an opportunity oversea...

How many have developed players that are playing consistent NPL level

There is the question?

How many of the 2006 Australian world cup team players played in the world cup trained in academies??

Speak to Diego Pellegrini, hes a tough coach but knows how to develop players phone 0434 053 971 I have googled his name very experienced player however not sure as he has been banned few times from coaching. Speaking with some of my colleagues from work and mentioned that he goes off his handle wh...

 deserves his spot.

As per previous posts certain clubs you have presidents have too much say in selections and biased towards players who dont deserve their spots.

Do you want your son to develop his skills or not? Grow some - does it really matter if they've been banned by the ffsa in the past? They're not effin rapists. I suggest you get your boy to play for the school if you're too sensitive . What are you on!!! relax! take a chill pill. sensitive i am not...

What are your thoughts on clubs trialling for a 17s team for the season back in October 2017 and parents have paid their fees and the club had decided this year to pull the team from the competition due to lack of numbers,now kids are to play under 18s when fees are a third of the juniors and the c...

you have to wonder what the kids(and parents) are told when they enter the "elite" system, are they told its the only pathway to the A-League/Europe/National team. They are churning out lots of robots who can play in a system but very few skilful players who can break one down.. I took my...

Yes i Agree

Thanks Limozeen
Yes We have few options its just ensuring my son is confident going back playing as its taken a toll on his confidence.

Thanks i am hoping as well

Hi Fellow Members thanks for your advice on this matter, the club has met its obligations and have given us full refund at the cost of my son having to leave the club. Its disappointing that my son had to endure an experience in which has made him think twice about playing this great game of ours in...

Yes however will need to wait until the season is over wont be fair on my son whilst he is still at the club however my original question is should the FFSA get involved? They should protect the members form clubs that do this to their member It's got nothing to do with the FFSA. Our club had an is...

For me, it's pretty straight forward. You have paid for a 17's spot and that wasn't available, a full refund should be made available. If he then accepts the 18's position then the appropriate fee is then paid. The club have clearly not kept to their side of any agreement. If all the parents got to...

So its OK for the club to use my son as the pawn just because we want a refund on something we didn't receive No it's absolutely not. It's disgusting behaviour. But from the info you've provided that sounds exactly like what's happened. It is Disgusting and my son is standing firm and continues to ...

He starts on the bench for the U18 and come on for the last 30- 20 minutes. I have been to his games with other parents questioning why his he sitting on the bench when there are players that are on the park not performing. again i question why!!! if both the coach and the technical director both k...

Thats my point too many coaches not having licences and certificates and still dont have any idea in coaching

Its Important that the presidents have a vision and plan which should include input from all stake holders not just his own vision. Too many presidents have their own self interest in clubs and think they have the right to make decisions that impact future direction of the club with out involving co...

The club does not have the obligation to give the difference back but it will be fair to do so. I know the U18s coach very well for many years. He has refused to get involved with the politics and his selection, with the assistance of the club football director is based purely on performance. Unfor...

Yes these are all NPL clubs we are at State League 2 club

At the club we are at the charges are $900 under12s-17s and 18s to seniors are $395 this was stipulated in our letter of offer in which we paid. i think it is only right the club refunds the difference. I am having a hard time getting our money back and my son is being now implicated and being bench...
