The new Northern NSW Football Board will come together shortly to commence planning for season 2023, future structure and direction of football within northern NSW.
At this stage it is business as usual, we have excellent staff within Northern NSW Football and much of the planning for 2023 is complete,” said Parsons.
Grassroots, premier football and development pathways prioritised
The new board have indicated their intentions to work with the football community to prioritise:
Grassroots football
New focus on the development of grassroots football throughout northern NSW.
Dynamic National Premier League Northern NSW
Commit to achieve a dynamic NPL structure with NPLW, NPL and NL1 (with promotion and relegation) from 2024.
Reassessment of development pathways
Review the junior development programs to ensure maximum opportunities for youth in our region and provide pathways for all genders and abilities.
Sounds like zones might re-take JDL.
