    The behaviour was swearing at officials to the point they should have been sent off, at injured players from the opposition team, at training. Not just the general swearing that kids sometimes do, but directed at people. Repeated incidents over time, unfortunately.

    Pretty much what I told my son when I spoke to him. Don't ever put your football development in the hands of your team mates, you have to look out for yourself in order to make it through to seniors in this sport, those players didn't just affect their own development but their teammates who got dragged into it as well, as well as all the other players in the region.

    The club did the right thing in trying to address it. The players let the club down, themselves and their fellow team mates and not to mention the sport as a whole.

    I think putting together a new team now would just be pulling players from other teams and divisions and from what I've seen it's an age group a few clubs are struggling to fill this year, not sure it would be fair on other clubs to do that at this point in the season.

    Magic 4-2 winners.

    2-0 at HT.

    Maitland started strong in second half and got goal back for 2-1. Magic then regained control and took 4-1 lead and should have had more but Maitland u14 keeper saved some good chances to keep score respectable.

    Maitland getting late consolation goal to finish the match.

    What's the Maitland U14 keeper doing playing down?

    In case of injury a keeper can play down an age. The reason is that it is a specialised position and because any kid in community league is registered in a different competition and cannot be called up to NPL. Common practice but requires NNSW approval.

    Not this year. Clubs are required to use U12 player now that Sap is under NPL clubs.

    They couldn't find a u13 keeper and for some reason being allowed to play him down.

    If Maitland has an U12 JDL team they can't and I'd be surprised if Maitland don't have a JDL team. Northern should look into that

    Their U13 keeper did leave them earlier in the year for Jets, maybe Jets poaching players late in the season is why.

    The Jets squads were finalized well before Xmas. No excuse for not getting another Keeper.

    He is u14 and is playing u13 and u14. They had plenty of time to replace keeper that went to Jets as trials and selections not done until after Jets squad chosen.

    Exactly. Feel sorry for U12 keeper not given opportunity. They also cut their keeper from last year U12 side.

    Waited until February to start looking with ads on nnsw website and club FB page.

    You sound pretty disgruntled by it. Is it really an issue?

    But after NPL trails.

    Still no excuse that the U14 keeper can play down when they have an U12 side

    It's just another example of Northern putting in regulations and then allowing clubs to ignore it

    The Jets sides were selected in October. Plenty of time so no excuses.

    Do you not understand it . The Jets had trials in October.
    Their keeper left in March so they needed a new keeper at the Jets and signed the Maitland 13's Keeper in MARCH . Not in October
