Its not what you want to see in youth football. Unless they have injuries across the board, but thats a lot of injuries all at the same time.
Wrong again Kitty. Magic do back their keepers to play up. Their U15 keeper for season is actually U14. At one stage, he was the only keeper available due to injuries/illness. Below are his stats for year which show he covered all age groups from U13 to U16.

U16 - NPL Northern NSW 2020 4 2020-10-18
U15 - NPL Northern NSW 2020 15 2020-11-15
U14 - NPL Northern NSW 2020 10 2020-11-14
U13 - NPL Northern NSW 2020 1 2020-10-04
