Has pre-season training started for VAFA teams?

[awesome wells]

if so, is it still possible to sign up for a team? im thinking Oakleigh, seeing as im from Noble Park and its not that far... and would i be 100% guaranteed to join?

Most clubs will start training in 2-4 weeks until about the week in which December 16th falls. Then they'll have a break until late January.

If you go down and train with them they won't cut you or anything. You'll be welcomed and fine to register as a player, it just means if you're not that good and the club doesn't have a club 18 you might be spending a bit of time running water instead of playing.

It was my first year last year and I found it really welcoming and a good fun club to be involved at.

Oakleigh start training on 16/11/2009. Meet at Scammell Reserve 6:00pm for a short meet the coaches then its into the grind.

You and anyone else who would like to join a progressive club will be made more than welcome.

For a club even closer to Noble Park (and better ) you should come down to Monash Blues. Training starts tonight at 6pm at Monash Uni in Clayton, near the main oval. It shouldn't be too hard getting a game each week as we will probably have a Club 18 team of our own next year.

waspy, when would you know about club 18? I'm going to have a very, very limited pre season so I want to go somewhere local with a club 18 so at least i have a chance of getting a few games

I'm not sure when we'll find out if there's a Club 18 for Blues, but there's also the Monash Whites who are a good bunch of blokes and are affiliated with us....they train and play at the Uni aswell.

Well we're training Monday, Wednesday and Friday (optional for Friday's) until mid December, would be great to see you down there. Some of those are beach and indoor sessions for a bit of variety. Good mix of Uni aged guys and older blokes aswell, and a new coaching staff this year.

First session on Monday was a bit of a shock to the system, but it felt good to be back on the track again!

 

[SMDAFC Info]

South Melbourne District head back to the track Jan 20th.
Skills and Drills Mondays and Wednesdays at Lindsay Hassett Oval, Albert Park. 6pm

If anyone knows of a club on the look out for new players let me know.
