RRP is $110.

Thanks for your interest. As Big Az said the finger saves are removable so you can choose just to protect a dodgy or injured finger if you need to.

Re: Issues With Club Trials

I agree in principle with what is being said, especially from the goalkeeping point of view. However we are in the process of moving interstate. How is my son to find a team if no one offered trials. He would be stuck playing where ever we could find a place for him even if it was at a dodgy club. I ...

Re: ffsa & state id champs = BS

It was West v South U11, the goal of the tournament without a doubt. My son played for South. I was glad West scored another one with 1 minute b4 final whistle, because the offsiede decision wouldve cost them the final(I think) Sorry you are right West v South.

As for the STIC, what player would not want to play with and against the best 80 in his/her age group. Fantastic opportunity for all. Clearly you didnt watch the U11 West v North. I actually ...

Well done to Para Hills and the FFSA. The STIC comp was well run and the Para Hills facilities were excellent.

8 boys from the U11 West were given notices by scouts on the weekend. And 8 boys from the East. Of course there are 30 spots for the trial, so maths tells us there were still 14 spots going to north, south and country. The U11 GF was completely one sided - in the direction the sun rises, not sets ...

Re: State Talent Identification Championships

My son is the Keeper in the West Zone U11.

They are doing OK. Have played a few trial games all against kids older than them.

I think they are playing the U14 girls state team next week. Some of the more girl aware boys might have a bit of trouble concentrating on the game I reckon!

Having said what I did about the carnival I will point out one truely awful referee decision. It is so bad you had to laugh. As I said my son was the keeper. They were 2 0 up in this game and the ball rolled to him outside the box (not a back pass) . So he dribbled it back to the box and stood there ...
