Well done CITY !!!

I believe U13 North STIC trials will be at Raiders this Saturday at 9am.

Maybe FFSA could look at resourcing the clubs somehow to get U13 U14 U15 club pplayer to earn a bit of pocket money and ref U6 -U11 games or give discounted fees for these ages that the kids to do the refeeing. Maybe you might find some ref's this I don't know... Excellent idea ..... the clubs them...

Ok, we'll just ask the FFSA to forget about the seniors and older juniors to provide refs for the u6-11 ........ I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because you havent been to many seniors games this year, but we have been short of an official twice on Saturday at the seniors, and I'm sure the o...

There is no problem with parent refs/game leaders, as long as they know the rules for that particular age group, don't 'coach' their team (coaching and encouraging are 2 different things), and if there is a decision to be made, do as you would to your own team, for both teams .... Don't agree Zelk....

And why can't FFSA fund junior refs like E&D do? It's not as though any of these 'issues' just came to light. Maybe the FFSA could take money out of the development budget to pay for more refs? I wonder of that's where E & D found the money :P No your right this "parent ref" issue...

And why can't FFSA fund junior refs like E&D do?

And we always get a few decisions that go against us, but big deal, life goes on, as long as the parent ref is consistent and trying to be fair..... But to take an u9 team from the field due to a couple of decisions not going your way is a disgrace .... Agree with you funny always another game anot...

Yesterday i was at a venue watching a game, while waiting for the game to start i was watching an Under 10 game. One team scored and the referee went up to this kid who would have been about 8 or 9 years old and said " It was your fn fault they scored" and pointing his finger at the kid, ...

Perhaps they have tried all those things and this measure is the only way to effectively control him! But again it’s up to the parent to decide that; not the coach, manager or gods forbid another parent!!

Most parent refs I've come across don't have a huge amount of experience but try to be fair (myself included). There are obviously a couple of exceptions to that rule. I personally make sure there are a number of encouragements and warnings before I will blow the whistle. After all they are only u/...

The score was State 3 Metro 0, which following on from the 9 0 win against Croydon last week shows that the squad isn't as bad as some people are hinting. So they win thats makes the squad good...."its all about development" yeah right!!! :lol: :lol: Don't "bag ya drum" too hard...

I hear the bloke doing the juniors has 'walked'..... He was still emailing at 4.30pm this afternoon from FFSA??? Well stop emailing just give us some fixtures ?? :lol: Wonder how much they are paying... :idea: :idea: Zelk put the fixtures together you seem to have heaps of time on your hand and kno...

What's so funny ?? :? The reason I laughed was reading the 5 pages of mostly negative, then I laughed again because you asked Zelk instantly..... I couldn't respond because couldn't get back on.... :? But really the write up at the end made me laugh with Mr Black and Harry sum's it all up... Maybe ...

All I can say about this U/14 state thing is UNBELIEVABLE.........i would have never thought how stupid this state selection - process - system or what ever you want to call was. They are so desperate to find their Aussie Messi I don’t think they are desperate to find the next Messi, I think they a...

The whole development arguement is really being taken out of proportion these days. First thing for any coach should be the development of each individual in the squad...which should be obvious. But at under 12 level and onwards you must play for points, like stirring the porridge said learning to ...

Let's take down the goals, remove the ball, play with a balloon and just play keep it up, if the balloon pops the other team gets a point. Learning how to win, lose and even draw is developement. Learning how to hold onto a game to win is also developement. Many many scenarios are developement to p...

Just in case you want to know who's developing the best :roll: :wink: IF FFSA are so hot on development how about scrapping the 12, 13 and under 14 ladders.. :idea: Perhaps after each game the kids from both sides could join togther and hold hands in a circle while chanting Bhuddist mantras of peac...
