    Not that there is a comparison but EPL clubs finish end of May and are back into it by early July.

    What NPL clubs do things differently? Most I know have some pre Xmas getogethers to bed in new squad and then train from January.

    Jets, Mariners youth and Sydney NPL1 clubs crack on earlier than that and train much more than local NPL. Are you saying all those players will stop playing by seniors? I don’t see it. The game has moved on.

    I’m just saying it was a long season and kids need to do something like go surfing for a good couple of months before they get back to the grind

    Why?

    What if they don’t want to do anything else? Force them to stand around for hours in the blazing sun in the hope someone hits the ball their way?

    Mate. It’s not an order, just my opinion. If you want to get straight back into then fill your boots

    Look, I was always of the same mind - soccer season then cricket season and in my day the two seasons didn't cross. But soccer has changed and clubs and players demand more nowadays. Those clubs sticking to the old school ways of months of inactivity will soon find themselves at the back of a chasing pack.

    Yes it puts more pressure on clubs and coaches but for my boy's club its a must. Pre-season kick before Xmas roughly 1.5 hours once a week and then back into it from Jan. And no one sees it as a "grind" - its soccer in 2022.

    Whispers of emerging Jets 9-12s starting next year in a 1 night p/w training only format. Not sure how this might sit next to NNSWs TSP format.

    See what happens.

    Hearing the same, open trials to be selected for the program.

    So how or when do they train with their clubs?

    Agree. Good to see all the top clubs represented. 17 players? Playing minutes an issue?

    What’s the movement like among the older ages? 14’s struggled but 15’s and 16’s went well.

    This might be SAP thread chat. Dangerous ground.

    Private training, so is it for the players already with them or is it being done as a way to get more money for Jets and also to bring in more income from GVE and Gomes by getting more players to their private sessions?

    Jets always do that 15 field players, 2 goalkeepers

    The jets not long ago posted about how the academy program is running 200k in the red (after the kids fees come in as well) and they are now going to try and re-add 9-12s over the top or in replace of TSP?

    Need to make the program sustainable before it collapses and let northern wear the cost of running the pre NPL development program.TSP / JETS 9-12s same same?

    Will be interested as to what the cost will end up being since TSP has been a $100 a term plus uniform if you want to buy it with northern claiming it runs in the negative as well.
