Edgy won 14s 15s 16s. Good day for them and are a real force in youth grades.
Adamstown Lake Mac & Weston on the other hand are terrible and how do they improve their position?
That is a major problem.
Plus the image of a not being a "successful" youth club hurts as well. Shows that history doesnt mean much now.
The "biggest" youth clubs now are those that grew out of late 80s or 90s bar Edgie.
u13s Adamstown Rosebud FC 13 0 0 13 4 99 -95. checkout goal difference. geez

Worry less about the position and more about the football being played.
Watched the top of the table teams yesterday play in one of those age groups and in all honesty the football being played up the top wasn't much different than the football being played down the bottom, its not any faster, maybe the only difference is having a number of players sitting on the bench that can replace any injured/subbed on the field in a specific position, down the bottom injuries become more of an issue and mindset which is pushed by mainly adults onto kids by people who tell them they aren't any good because of where they play football. also both Weston / lakes have had players selected for nationals - if players stopped congregating in those teams at the top we'd probably have a more even competition and more players coming through into senior football.
Have you asked about where any of the Edgeworth 16's are now after winning 3 youth grand finals as they came through? I've heard not many if any of them are still at Edgeworth playing senior football.
Youre on the Snooze macquarie train iirc. Can tell you that many players are not up to standard. Forget trying to defend this. Although the top teams may also not go to much higher it makes those below look awful.
They do have a decent set of people trying to undo those very problems that ive already mentioned. So, what can hey do to really improve it?? real options not the cryfest thanks.

Saw 13s Edgy Magic. Magic too good. Edgy had some good passages but didnt do enough yesterday.
Jaffas 13s tanked against Olympic. Decent game, Jaffas clocked off at some points and werent strong enough.
Heard this 9v9 comp is starting soon anyone seen a finalised fixture list?
