This forum is for the discussion of women's football, the fastest growing participation sport in Australia. This includes local women's football and the A-League Women.
Good to see some forumites coaching girls zone teams this year - and an extra age group this year too.
Only pity is that girls comp is reduced to 2 days because of cup finals
sawsa dot have enuf pitches/space for changeroom facilities like tents nw at not nor suitable toilets... same goes 4 city. i saw keep it at the paddocks its atop venue and too bad for those who have to travel... i happen to have to travel eevrywhere bar the northern suburbs which sux seeing as i liv up that way!
Its only for a weekend ...get over it! ..like courtz and skeet have touched on ..why dont u think of people who have to travel that far on a DAILY basis!
Centralisation is the key. Again I think you girls drive yourselves around coz you're not elgible for Zones. Correct? So I'm just thinking that a central spot is sensible. Public transport is not an issue when its centralised in town and I can get myself a great latte before heading ff to the games darlings!
Facilties not adequate? Maybe not but then again when SAPSASA was located opposite the the Airport, the cow paddock was just mowed and transportables placed there. Have Para Hills exceptional facilities to cater for the masses?
I really cant see the problem with having to travel to Para Hills for 2 or 3 days.
Gawler was good last year, even though it meant over 2 hours a day travelling for me.
So long as the grounds are well set up, facilities are good, and the kids have a good time why does it matter where it is?
FYI sad gal there was a time when we didnt drive either and our parents have had to do the driving everyday of the week ..so people driving for ONE weekend to a GOOD venue ..that is perfect to hold the event ..is NO BIG DEAL
ye we werent born with P plates gosh! parents had to drive me to sasi EVERY NIGHT! and on a saturdee morning. we wld also juggle that with taking my yunger sisters to netball and my yunger brother to his match... so im sure u can manage heading to parahills (which is only about 20 mins from the city anyway) for 2 days.... yes it woudl be ideal to have it in the city.. but we dont have the IDEAL location to hold it with the required space and facilities... unless u can pull a few pitches out ur rear end.. the paddocks is a top location!
i agree courtz, 20min from the city for 1 weekend at a location that is really not that far from the city with great facilities isn't that much of a hassle! ..after all chicks in vic can't get their P's till their 18 so their STILL getting driven around to training and games and what not by their parents.
...those with the most invested are the last to surrender... >>ps fulham #15 is hawt LOL
