Well with coaches that?s an easy fix. If I don?t like my son?s coach I just leave the club it?s not hard. You can play for another coach/ club. The standard of refs affects the whole comp.Quote:

In youth NPL the best you could probably hope for is maybe a parent that played the game at a decent level and not much more unless your kid makes it to a higher level. I mean what can we expect for YNPL? Do we want an ex EPL player or Socceroo. No chance of that.
Yes apparently 16 and 17 year old boys are senior players.
Has there been an announcement for this from NNSW? Can anyone provide a link? Didn't the 18s only get moved into PYL 2 seasons ago?Quote:

NNSW trying to come up with the next bright idea is only stuffing things up even more. They have just over cooked everything.
PYL only started two years ago.Quote:

How do you expect this to occur? It wasn't younger when 18s were playing before reserves all the time, why would it suddenly change now?Quote:

Its just an obsevation.As the youth programs get better from JDL up,eventually I hope that our best young kids are getting every chance they can get at the highest level available.If the experts think this is the way then so be it I support it.Quote:

I understand that the proposal was that 18s would play on senior game day but still be playing against their PYL opponent. So, theoretically, Belswans could be playing Olympic at home in seniors and their 18s could be playing Southy. The remaining PYL teams would also play Southy at Belswans but on the other day. It will the draw pretty complex.
That would make the most sense, however, seems that won't be the case because it would make the draw too complex.Quote:

The only solution, if they want 18s on senior match day, is to make a difficult draw work and keep the 18s in PYL.
Decoupling 18s could lead to, over time, there being multiple clubs in NL1 without 18s due to current ZL1 clubs earning promotion, and a dead 18s comp in NL1.
All very good questions that I doubt Northern or the clubs including NL1 clubs that are pushing for this have even thought about. Just thinking about how to make more money. The NPL clubs couldn't give two shits about NL1 so of course they are in favour for it but Northern needs to govern over all the competitions and ensure they remain healthy regardless if a few clubs get upset that they can't charge the parents of 16 year olds money for coming to watch.Quote:

Already struggling to fill 24 youth grades, imagine what it will be like when clubs lose their youth players and then can't fill them again or hesitant to do the work to fill them again should they get promoted because if they are unable to stay up they go back to the same issues.
Unless they are going to make Zone Leagues have an U18s too.
