    This is interesting, particularly the bit about encouraging kids in the program to attend the school. I wonder what happens if the kids parents refuse???
    I also wonder how the football program affects the kids at the school who do not play for the Jets Academy. Will the kids playing for other NPL and similar clubs be included in this now basically Academy training?

    In the end, I can't see this as anything but a bad move for the Jets Academy. They're getting less football, and thus less development.
    OK

    Don't know what you are all worried about

    Very little has changed here since Pascoe was coaching the Jets Yoof team


    Kids were going to HSH then in the hope of making it


    Pascoe may have stopped his active involvement with the Jets but this is just changing things back to the way things were being done 3/4 years ago

    Just them reinventing the same stuff and calling it a different name



    If anything this is just showing all that is wrong with Football in the Hunter
    The same guys all keep getting a start again and again and again

    No wonder NNSW fails spectacularly compared to the rest of Oz

    Yes you did

    "Not really a surprise that Hunter Sports is the school. The TD works there along with every other teacher who also coaches an EJ team."
    And less than half of the Coaches are at the Jets!

    Sorry Jetty Jet, but grammar isn't your strong point. That says the TD works there. It doesn't say he is the TD there. Are you an Old boy of HSH?

    The TD DOESN'T work there!!
    He is the TD at the Jets and works for the Jets, he doesn't work for the school. Either way what was said was incorrect.

    Yes but you claimed I said he was TD of the school, which I never said.

    TD used to work there though, other coaches still do.

    That is factually incorrect.
    1) "The TD works there"- Incorrect, he doesn't.
    2) "along with every other teacher who also coaches an EJ team"- Incorrect

    Don't back track now, when I asked you what was incorrect you said, that he wasn't the TD of the school. Which isn't what I said.

    He's got you there JettyJet. You clearly called him out on claiming something he didn't claim. Again your comprehension skills are being questioned. Who does and doesn't work there at any given time is another matter.

    Honestly, what he said in whatever context or grammatical slant you apply to it was wrong. It was wrong then, as it is now.
    The facts remain the same, what was said was incorrect and lacked the knowledge to have an informative comment or opinion.
    Whataboutism is pathetic, still in whatever context you apply, the comment was incorrect. I made a grammatical misread, that doesn't make the comment any less incorrect.

    "The TD works there along with every other teacher who also coaches an EJ team."- Is 100% false.

    Lots of u11 Jets trialing for NPL clubs. Are Jets Youth going to Sydney?

    Technical skill today is street ahead - at all levels.
    Where things have gone backwards is that we used to have certain clubs developing juniors not their senior programs.

    Trimmers as an example [Bottom left of picture] was developed by Brighton. He played in a local two division competition which also competed in Cup matches throughout the year against teams in other regions, and ultimately other states as well.
    There were no elite teams - you played in one of two divisions [rarely more] and come Cup time a division 2 team in one comp could play a division 1 team in another comp.
    The best players were well and truly known as were the best teams. Different clubs played different styles of football, different teams played different types of football.
    Skilfull kids were targeted by less skilled ones, skilled kids learned how to deal with it......

    The insular nature of the junior game today is killing it. In the past the elitism was only in the 1st division teams - but the 2nd div kids at least got a crack at them in the Cup games.
    Today - you have the elite kids all playing against each other in a bubble which is absolutely pointless.

    I thought U11s weren't allowed to trail for U13 clubs in NPL sides.

    Usually they are not but they were deemed to be an exception to the rule as Jets Academy teams moving to Sydney next season start at U13. U13 Jets will play U13 NPL in Sydney. The current U11 (next season’s U12) would not have anywhere to play. Sure they could play U12 SAP or NET but they have already played U12 SAP this year. This is why they have been allowed.

    What’s the reasoning behind this? If you’re good enough you should be allowed to play IMO.
