    Believe it, this amongst so many other reasons a group of parents made the smart choice to leave

    It’s funny how it was only a single age group where this happened.

    Club issues or parents sense of entitlement?

    The kids never seems unhappy at training or during the games.

    Obviously you don’t know the kids nor the parents.

    Enlightenment me on why you say parents sense of entitlement?

    Parents (in general - not everyone) in that age group were
    Unhappy they didn’t have a say when NF were engaged to provide technical support.
    Constantly butting heads with the Director of Football after he was appointed.
    Divided between the JWF clique and the non JWF families.
    Difficult to get volunteers from for home games.
    After hearing about the second 12’s team being introduced some outright refused to mix their kids with the “new kids”.

    This is just what I can remember off the top of my head.

    So if Richard told you the sky was falling in and the earth was flat you’d believe him too?

    Lol, you asked the question, I gave you a response.

    Now you’re making an assumption on where it was heard. You forget there are managers, co-ordinators & other parents who talk.

    You are just showing your inherent bias. As I mentioned earlier. It’s funny the issues only occurred in a single age group.

    I believe there is a broader cultural issue at the Jaffas.

    I became aware of 2 recent examples that point to the issue.

    1. A team manager for the U/12 team sent a message ahead of the Newcastle Olympic game denigrating less fortunate members of society (housing commission) who reside close to Darling St oval. The manger has not been reprimanded by the club.

    2. A defender within the U/12 team continues to target players in back play. In yesterdays game he karate kicked a NO player off the ball and subsequently scythed the same player down in the following play with the ball well and truly gone. What are Jaffas senior coaching figures doing about such behaviour. Will it take a serious injury to deal with and correct the beahviour?

    After hearing about the second 12’s team being introduced some outright refused to mix their kids with the “new kids”. FASLE and Actually laughable again and it’s this point that identifies it comes from Richard.

    This is just what I can remember off the top of my head.

    Hey just wanted to clarify the above for you, might need to fact check before you open up.

    Probably didn't help that the TD has banned Lambton players from attending JWF sessions

    Not True, it’s not encouraged but definitely not banned

    Its ok,the New Lambton Kids that left last year all have the worst parents in the world too according to some.As some one who knows parents from both clubs mentioned,not one of them has regretted moving on.Probably something in that.Clubs are fine theres always kids willing to take a spot.Its best we all move on.
