Who is going to have a colts team next year? Colts is getting better every year.. surely the SFL can enter a few more colts teams next year! Will Cheltenham front up with another team next year?
 
I just hope we are all playing footy next year!!

Skye are continuing to look into the possibilities, I know CDJFC are not too far away assisting greatly into our colts division

madman skye must be able to get a colts team together! I played a bit of footy down at carrum downs bombers and its turned into a massive rabble! A couple of seasons ago carrum downs had the U/15s and 16s fold which would of hindered the development of skye.. hopefully use can gather a team and tak eon the tigers!
 
having been brought up in the carrum downs area i reckon syke could easily field a colts team but you'd have to poach some of the tigers off cuts
just look at the juniors down there ecspecially the ruckmen in the u/13's he'll be a champ one day lol

im guessing your the under 13 ruckman haha! not many players you can poach off seaford considering everyones getting a game. I do reckon Skye can make a colts team very easily! madman why cant skye get the numbers to play colts?
 
We could get the numbers I have no doubt about that, it aint just seaford but the pines, langy etc I'm sure there are plenty of kids wanting more oppurtunity's

But its a bit hard to gauge how serious the sfl are about an unders comp!!

As i said earlier, money doesnt grow on trees, Id like to see some more effort from them to help clubs get up and going, maybe wavering some fees or something like that??

But to tell ya the truth I'm not exactly clued in to where exactly we are at, i'll talk to the prez and report back.

the caulfield bears entered a team in the ammo's u19's comp this year in a partnership with prahran. i think the team was about half and half and most of the players will be eligable next year. i think they're trying to get an u18's team up the year after next but i'm not sure.
 
alot of the guys in that area play until they get to u/16s and then lose abit of interest as there is a decent skill and physical difference and also most of them start having kids in carrum downs at that age lol;) skye has a good a very good junior club.
south yarra has a close connection with richmond junior football club with a decent influx of players for there last yr and are hoping for more this year as they dont have a senior side.
 
To Madman My Cousins Plays Juniors Down At Carrum Downs Great Kids Coming Threw Future Looks Bright For Skye In The Next 4 To 7 Years.do Any Seniors Help Out,and How Many Other Clubs In Southern Have Juniors From U/9 To U/16
 
Funny you say that big fella, I know the Captain Shrekka was down there helping out, also senior footballers like Micky J, H and even the Prez are involved.

I was thinking over the next couple of years getting heavily involved myself with coaching unders so I will venture down frequently next year and see if I myself are suited.....
 
Skye is making a colts team just leave your name and number and i will get back to you guys so we can form a great team.

no way motor vinnie! skye will struggle to be competitive and im very doubtfull they will even win a game no decent players in the area the likes of sam beckham,joel broadhurst,bradley fengler have been snapped up by rival clubs like seaford unfortunately skye will have to wait until 09 to field a half decent colts team

Highett to have U/18s in 2009 and beyond,seems as though alot of clubs are now realising that the future is with young blokes.Eg(StPauls,Clayton)

Anymore development in this area for 2008? Which clubs do have the Colts confirmed and will there be a Southern competition or will they be running around again under the MPNFL league?
Are clubs actually working hard to develop this area....I think some aren't though a club like Highett it may actually save them.

Hey Jamo,

Is it true you have signed up at Heatherton? My advise if you have not is don't as they are a bloody rabble and it could be a decision that you may regret.
 
Only 3 Colts teams look like getting up and running with Chelt, Hampton, Murrumbeena all confirmed. This is a disgraceful effort, especially from the 9 other Div. 1 clubs that don't have a team, or haven't made any effort at all. Are clubs happy to just pay a fine and not have to go to the effort?? Or are clubs just happy to continue to buy players in with no regard for promoting junior talent?? How can a club like St Pauls, with all the juniors they have, not be able to field a team, or even a composite club with another side?? Any thoughts fellas??
 
It could just be what the league has come too or it's just put in the too hard basket by the clubs without a colts team.

It does take a lot of time and effort to get a team going from scratch and these teams either have a short term outlook or the perception will be that they dont care about there future.
 
heard through a few clubs that chelsea heights will be scouting around all the under 18sn local comps hoping to get 2gether a colts team with a future to go on n play senior football for the club! \

chelsea heights under 18ns???
scouting players from carrum, bonny, chelsea , edi asp,
could it work?? is it true??
