Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
Having a club like panthers in the WNPL and who actually meet the criteria, would be an even better step in right direction.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
Really ? Sign on bonuses and player payments to players ? I don't think the women's game is quite there just yet, particularly in the WSL.
A d then only to certain players ? Doesn't sound like a way to create a harmonious team environment, particularly within a female group.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
All DIV 1 players received match payments in 2015 and all State League First Team players will receive match payments in 2016.
Major long term Club Sponsors allow us to offer this to players.
We have a dedicated and loyal group of Senior Players at our Club.
Our Club Committee fully supports Womens Football and provide great leadership for players at all levels.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
I meant a step in the right direction for women's football, not just for South Adelaide. - was unaware panther players were receiving match payments in 2015. Good job in securing a long term sponsor- not easy to do.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
Do they still pay the full $590 rego fee? I would have thought if they were a dedicated and loyal group they wouldn't need match payments...

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM .... yes a dedicated groups of players getting paid to play football , hell of a concept , probably doesn't happen anywhere else in the world apart from South Adelaide Pink Panthers ,
Here is what should happen ,
We should charge the junior girls fees for as many years as they are committed to playing football for us ,
We should charge the junior boys fees for as many years as they are committed to playing football for us
If the boys end up any good we will pay them to play for us as senior footballers
If the girls end up any good we will keep taking fees from them and give it to the boys .
No Brainer really.
Good on you Phil and all at Pink Panthers
Play the whistle . shut the feck up .

Good to see we share a similar sense of humour.
As for the facts, that's something you and Troll have to work out ;)

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
As a parent of a senior player at panthers i feel the club and comiittee and ESPECIALLY phil has done a fantastic job supporting our girls senior and junior teams.
if we didnt pay fees we wouldnt have our women changerooms!
also my daughter and others are committeed to panthers not because of the payments because the fantastic support they get with developing their soccer skills
These girls would play even without the payment but the payment shows these girls how the club is trying to support them
Phil, the sponsors and the committee you do an awesome job and our girls are committed because they are proud to be panthers!

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
so the girls pay fees then get their money back via payments, strange? is the facility a council ground? if so council pays for change rooms, oval facilities etc, do their payments end up as much as their fees? are their payments taxed? if so why not just not charge fees? then technically everyone is better of?

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
Clearly South Adelaide is a well organised club committed to women's football that engenders loyalty from the players. I am a little confused as to the merits of player payments while charging fees at the same time however. Maybe someone from South Adelaide could clarify? Does it mean simply that the better players who receive larger payments are paying less to play?
Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
The purpose of this post was to inform potential new players and/or existing players as to what we were doing at South Adelaide in 2016.
Whilst I acknowledge this is an open forum and therefore is at the mercy of anyone who wants to comment I have been disappointed from some of the responses, particularly from representatives of at least 2 current Premier League Clubs, both of whom I would have thought are keen to promote and develop Womens Football as best we can here in Adelaide.
Our Club is not in the habit of discussing personal terms and/or payments to players on an open forum, suffice to say, all players are remunerated equally at this time.
I can however confirm that ALL players at South Adelaide pay fees and if a player is then considered to be worthy of Senior selection (Men’s Premier League and Women’s State League) then we believe it is appropriate to acknowledge this with match payments and/or other incentives.
Our Club and our players are excited about the season ahead and we will continue to do what we believe is right for the development of not only our 300 plus players at our Club but that of Football in this State.
I prefer to use this forum for positive and informative reasons only and I will not be drawn into a debate/argument as to what is right and what is wrong. If anyone would like to talk to me directly they can do so by calling me on 0410 386100.
All discussions will be dealt with privately, confidentially and professionally.
I wish all clubs, Mens and Womens, the best for 2016 and look forward to meeting with you all during the season.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
I meant no disrespect, I was simply asking a logical question based on previous posts. And you have answered my question, thank you. Given that you mentioned player payments in your initial post I thought that you might be willing to answer questions regarding said payments.
Good on South Adelaide for paying their women.

Re: South Adelaide Panthers 2016
Just for clarity, the change rooms were paid for by a Government grant balanced by funds from the City of Onkaparinga, however the efforts of Panthers were essential to secure the grants and funding.soccer24 wrote:As a parent of a senior player at panthers i feel the club and comiittee and ESPECIALLY phil has done a fantastic job supporting our girls senior and junior teams.

A small percentage of the fees (5-6%) go toward ground-facilities use and maintenance and mostly fees would go toward FFSA costs, equipment costs and running the Club responsibly.
