What's the mail on their youth? Why Div3?

After today's results it sounds like the teams playing in div 1 next year will be the div A teams plus

Lake Mac
Mid Coast
New Lambton
Cooks Hill

Can anyone confirm?

The link you shared doesn't paint a good picture of NNSW....

Using Newcastle Community Football as an example:

Total Average Rego Cost:


Entry level (u5-u7): $164.75

Junior (u8-u11): ...

I think you're heavily underestimating costs for clubs here.

Average grounds rental for year including lighting etc $30,000
Maintenance on ground $10,000
Clothing - $200 per player: 200 * 100...

Cooks Hill has a fund set aside for exactly this purpose. To support local kids who otherwise would not be able to participate not just in NPL but football at all levels. There are ~10 kids this year...

Cooks Hill improving in the last 2 weeks and doing it the right way too.

In the starting 11 vs Charlestown there was:
2 x 17yr olds
a boy that playe u16s for Australia a couple of years ago...

After the spray he gave the referee on his red card last week in his last game then he won't be featuring for The Sun's for a while.

I think we need to stop blaming the individual clubs for this and start considering that there may be greater issues at play here that need addressing such as the competitiveness of the competitions....

This simply isn’t true, the majority of 2021 youth players who were keen to progress to the NPL were retained.

The club had a very decent team in the age group that would have player u16s in 2022...

From what I heard they had decent amount of players chose not to trial and requested to play in Community Teams instead of NPL or went to other NL1 teams. Most of the 2021 players that were keen,...

I think this years KO times have solved that problem. A gap of 30mins between ressies and 1st grade means that teams can start their warm-up in the area east of the pitch, and move onto the field...

Anyone know what the wet weather policy is for Grand Finals?

Knowing the rep that Lisle Carr has for being a swamp and looking at the forecast for the week I wonder how close we'll get to a wash...

I heard Cooks Hill are promising free casks of fruity lexia and 2 minute noodles for the whole uni team if they get a win!

Swap Stockton to the top 4 for Gardo above and I think it will be pretty close.

I think that Stockton, Cooks and Raymo are the best teams and i'd be very surprised if 1 of them didn't win it.
...

Too early for some corrected mid-season predictions?

Just had a look at the way the association awards club championships. Does any else think its strange that a win is only worth 2x a draw, rather than in the regular table where a win is 3x a draw?

Not to mention that one of the Cooks Hill boys is getting married in Spain next Wednesday. That has taken 5/6 of them even before the WC. Although Cooks Hill might feel more comfortable than most...
