Development and State Team Programs





Boys

A new pathway for Under 12, 13 and 14 Boys will provide an enhanced environment for player development through regular, high quality competition and coaching. The program will also create a more structured approach for player identification to ensure the best young players in South Australia are identified. Coaches for the program have been selected by FFSA Technical Director Airton Andrioli and will be part of a mentoring program which will provide coach education in line with the FFA National Curriculum.



Under 12 Development Program (July – September)

The Under 12 program is intended to enable a greater number of players (8 metro zone teams & 1 country) to be assessed and identified in game situations.

The program is as follows:

• · 9 Teams selected (2 North, 2 South, 2 East, 2 West and 1 Country) to compete in July 2011 State Talent Identification Championships (STIC)
  
  · After the tournament 4 teams of 16 players will be selected (1 North, 1 South, 1 East and 1 West). Identified country players will be linked to metro squads.
  
  The two coaches from each zone will now work together with one squad
  
  · The 4 squads selected from STIC will remain together, training during the month of August.
  
  · The 4 squads will then play weekly games, (organized by FFSA) during September for the final selection of players, (games to be played at the same venue).
  
  · The Under 13 FFA Skilleroos squad will then be selected at the end of September 2011.
  
  · The FFA Skilleroos program will be full time. Players will train during the week and play weekend matches in the Under 14 JPL competition
  (no club commitments).

Under 13 Development Program (July - September)

The under 13 program is intended to give players that participated in 2010 program and also new players in this age group, another opportunity to be assessed and identified for the Under 14 State Development program.

The program is as follows:

• · 5 Teams selected (North, South, East, West and Country) to compete in July 2011 State Talent Identification Championships (STIC).
  
  · After the tournament the 4 zone teams will remain together, training during the month of August, (Identified country players will be linked to metro squads).
  
  · The 4 squads will then play weekly games, (organized by FFSA) during September for the final selection of players for U14 programs, (games to be played at the same venue).

Under 14 Development Program

After the tournament Metro and Country coaches will provide a list of players they believe should be looked at for the U14 development squad and SASI. Players will also be assessed during the tournament by U14 Development Squad Coach Elvis Markov and SASI coach Tony Vidmar. The selected players will be invited at the most appropriate time for further assessment.

My only concern is our club spends a lot of time and money
in developing kids for our senior team and for australia.
Are their any finacial benefits for clubs. AUFC IS A PRIVATE ORGANISATION.

Just a question which has me puzzled....I see the pathway leads to the Joeys...great...but arent the Joeys an Australian team...which should imply that all players who have been selected for the preceeding programs be Australian or Australian Citizens.....or did we just forget about that so certain juniors who are connected closely with more senior figures in SA football are kept happy....so I think its quite easy...if you want to be apart of an Australian program u must be an Aust citizen...or should we just keep turning a blind eye!!!

Are you assuming that the player/child concerned wont be an Australian citizen in the future ?

If he does great....if he doesnt...who assumes the responsibility for putting time, effort and money (which they always complain we dont have enough of) into developing a player who may represent a country the Joeys play against!!! Nice gamble on FFSA's part ...but thats right...all kids are looked at with no preferential treatment....and the player we are tooking about is even underage!!!

So you're talking about a child in the u12 east STIC team ?

Yes in the U12 Stic and SAP...look its nothing against the player...I have seen him play and he has some great skill...but is it fair that this programs funding be used in this way. Sorry, but this is black and white....no shade of grey here!!!

The federal Governement which funds FFA which funds FFSA which funds the local development programs. But I will stop this now as it seems that this type of selection is accepted within our football community....but please stop with other threads going on about why arent there FFSA coaches looking at all players from JPL and JSL etc when there is only enough spots left after u look after certain players in the community....

Didnt really want to start a new topic so tacked it onto this one...

Have heard a whisper or two a couple of weeks ago that Adelaide United may be looking to establish junior teams ie U12's upwards (or teams linked to AU) that would play in the FFSA leagues ... anyone heard anything re this or is it the usuall unfounded rumour??

I'd be extremely surprised if this happened. Whats the point? Would just put a lot off clubs off side with them.
