So no u15 trials?

What about the girls who came second in the division this year? Will there be a u15 squad for those who have to move up?

Sad Gal, I understand your point about losing players from the game and your cynicism towards FFSA, but your comment is pretty harsh with respect to the players selected, even for you. Those girls don't deserve that.

I did pm a moderator when I posted it. Crickets.

Bump.

Hey admin, could you put this in announcements?!

Cumberland United WFC has a rich history of successful football programs for girls and women. We would like to invite all interested players to trial for U11, U13, U15 and U17 squads in the 2012 season. When: Sunday 16/10 10:00-11:30 Thursday 20/10 6:30-8:00 Tuesday 25/10 6:30-8:00 Where: Gordon Bro...

See topic "W-league Draw"

Two U14 games starting at 9am, then a w-league trial game, then 2 more u14 games. Part of trial process for NTC squad that will play in prems next year.

They're all in the same boat. The optomistic part of me wants to say that the scheduling is deliberate and it is all a test, which it should be IMO. The other part reminds me that we only had trials less than three weeks ago and just got the fixtures on Tuesday. I guess we all need to choose what to...

From third place in Div 2 to Prems- That's a lot of teams to get through. Sounds like a long-term plan to me. Nothing wrong with a long-term plan! Good luck to them if that's what they're setting out to do and that rumor is true.-

Thanks M@rvin. Interesting that teams each play back to back games once on the weekend. And no prelim or grand finals. Must be trying to take Win/lose out of the equation so the coaches and teams can focus on play the system?

Friday night? That's interesting- tournament has always been Saturday, Sunday, Monday- I'd really like to know if we're playing in Burton on Friday night as we are in the south and that's a long hike in rush hour traffic. Given that rials were only held two and a half weeks before the tournament I g...

Does anyone have a fixtures list for the STIC tournament this weekend? I know I'm being optimistic in thinking that one might exist already when there are still 5 days left until the tournament-

The fulham girls played a cracker and deserved the win. To be fair The uni girls played their hearts out- those young girls just play the game, they don't print the shirts- the adults do. So let's all just celebrate a great cup finals day- all the games were well contested (save the 10-1 PH united w...

Unfortunately, if you read carefully, it's three up three down within the seniors, and three up three down within the juniors.. Between the two is not covered and therefore you could interpret that to mean that age eligible juniors have free movement without restrictions as to numbers moving down or...

Really unfortunate. Best wishes to hayley for a quick recovery.

It isn't personal, but I think the point is that rumours can be destructive in that people sometimes give them weight. Women's soccer is unstable enough as it is without someone, out for a bit of fun or whatever, introducing wild, unsubstantiated rumours into the mix. Clubs are trying to improve and...

Too bad for those girls that the club has decided to go with what's easiest.

A fourth senior side? Or one senior women's side?

I'm guessing that since the age groups have changed, with U13 and U14 only having one birth-year each, that they had to consolidate in order to get enough players- just a guess though.

Worse than Equatorial Guinea in the women's world cup?

Caretaker, I think vague, speculative comments like that which call into question someone's character are unnecessary, and in this case completely inaccurate.

Yeah, we're all such ratbags!

You caught me! Can't get anything past you, fat boy!

And that Uni parent who came over came to talk to me- not to police Cumberland parents.

I have to point out that Uni haven't cheated, as they haven't violated any rules, just exploited loopholes. I would argue that they have violated the spirit of the rules and of junior football in general- how do the players that were replaced in last week's cup round develop? Is it a development opp...

Every team has parents associated with it who get caught up in the heat of an exciting game and say inappropriate things, as inappropriate as tarring all "Cumberland parents" with the same brush. Uni's club policy of replacing girls in a side with age eligible players from higher divisions...

Div 3's might have done it all on their own. I can say that the U17's will win the cup due to "noticeable stacking". Within the rules, perhaps, But stacking nonetheless.

Another timely printing of t-shirts, I see.
