    My (almost) 9yo will be entering the SAP world in 2021.
    New club, new everything.
    I've been keeping an eye on this discussion, and at times got scared by all the non-football issues and the amount of political BS around young kids playing football (and sport in general). But that's the real world, I guess.

    Being admittedly very bad at this, my simple and naive advice to my kids has always been:
    1. Work hard
    2. Keep improving
    3. Do your best
    (4. pass the bloody ball!!!)

    Hope it works...

    Welcome.

    Ignore the trolling and negativity, it's an unfortunate side effect of anonymity.

    In general the program is the best available pathway unless you have an exceptional coach at community level.

    You're giving your young one the right message which is similar to what I ask from my young ones in sport, school or anything they participate in:
    • Always try your hardest
    • Listen to what you're being taught
    • Enjoy yourself


    If needed, reinforce the right behavior at training, not to be silly or distractible because the coaches hate nothing more.

    I remember nothing I hated more in juniors than turning up to training and everyone begging to play “tackle footy” at the end and throughout.
    I mean, kids will be kids in terms of behaviour. But I guess, hopefully, kids in these SAP are genuinely interested in football and want to be playing it.

    At 2 nights of training a week there'll be no time for that. Join a touch footy comp on a non training night.

    Interesting because they have no intention of leaving the Sydney NPL for youth and seniors.

    Have you switched allegiances? I notice a lot of Edgy praise from you on here and FB rather than Valo recently.

    I wanted to help Valo out for a year with a bit of support because I like their colours. I have decided to go back to Edgy where I belong. Go the Eagles!

    I think his account has been hacked, filling the forums with irrelevant posts.
