Re: U 12 state development friendly
ye i was watching from the sidelines and from what i saw was that East are a very good team with many players who can break the game open. It seemed as though the the first two quarters North were bringing east down to there level but as soon as Robbie DiTroia made some tactical changes it seemed to be all one way traffic as the scoreline suggests.
Goalscorers East- Ben 2, Marc 4, adam 1, nathan 1
Goalscorers North- Some bloke??

Lethal u12 state (regional) development squads north, south, east and west this year. I also believe there is a South east country squad too (Mt Gambier way)

amazing how many people go around saying their son is in the "State" side at Under 12. It's a $650 a year training team...or many training teams. That's all it is.

Players make state teams and then pay to go to the nationals.
I believe this is the first stage of state selection.

It's an 'academy', offering what all good academies should -
I think the hope of most parents is that the player is always in the sight of selectors, making it a natural decision for the people in charge.http://www.ffsa.com.au/academy.asp wrote:The structured development program consists of progressive development coaching by highly accredited FFSA coaches and includes:
I’m going to stand on my soap box now –
A lot of parents have huge hopes and expectations for their kids, they’ll do their best; take them to training, games and sometimes to club activities. That’s great, but not enough.
Parents need to lead by example, they need to make a huge commitment to the club they’re at, at the time. Children see, hear and sense everything, if their parents are complaining about canteen duty, rosters, linesman duty, club functions, the coach, and etc the player will grow up loosing his/her drive, hunger and commitment to the game.
For the parents out there that have a secret dream to see their child play professionally or to give 100%, start while they’re young; go to senior games on a regular basis, volunteer for the canteen, run the line, cook the BBQ, pick up the bibs. Just get in there and show your child that you’re willing to put in as much as you want them to put in.
After all, if you’re saying things like – “why should I help out at the club, my son doesn’t play on the senior pitch” why should your son give 100% to the club if dad and mum don’t?

OK, stepping down off the soap box

Last year...5, yes FIVE of Enfield City's Under 12's were in the Northern State Development team. Enfield finished rock bottom last season with one point. They didn't win a game, and yet they had 5 players of "State" quality. No offence intended, but really....

Well put! couldn't agree more
for all of you that think this is a pay for your spot forget it, after having the boy do it last year I can only say that a kid going from looking that this can be just a game or I'd like to make this a possible future profession.
so call it what you will I say it's development.
the boy working with a good development coach Keith and Ritchie as the assistant the step at 12 is now alot closer seeing what a player needs to do, how his mind needs to think to get to the childs future dreams and most importantly the constant support given to the kids was brilliant and it didn't matter about the skill level from the average to the brilliant they all got the same support.
this system should be open at every age not just the 12's but at all levels for those who want to aspire can get the benefits.

Re: U 12 state development friendly
Johny,
I just looked at the link you supplied to the FFSA website. There is a section for academies (which was your link) and a further link to academy squad members (which has no names listed in it)
But adjacent to that link there is another link to a list of Development squad members.
What is the difference between the academy and the development squad?
