[Abra1]

Has anybody heard what will be happening with SAP this year? Will it be run over the summer season?

[Željko Jurin]

Yes, clubs have just received this week the details for player nominations for 2001 and 2002 born kids

[Abra1]

Thanks for that Zeljko. Is it still going to be run as one group or was it decided to split it into two?

Yes it is a quality program run by quality people...All clubs should have submitted there nominations by now and I know that they would have been contacted by now with the trial dates..

[Abra1]

Best - I don't know! I was assuming that Richie was.

[hurlcrook]

I think a prerequisite is that the club you play for must be based in Gepps Cross.

never have anything positive to say Hurlup

[hurlcrook]

Again they have just wasted the time of 100 or so parents having to drive to burton when they knew which kids would get the gig from the get go.

[hurlcrook]

They may as well have had it at gepps.
Plenty of prev-owned govt land out there.

[hurlcrook]

Anyone that watched the game saw AC score 6 of their goals from Raiders defensive mistakes due to the way they are being taught to play, to play out from the back and have confidence in their own abilities
Some of their passing play was great to watch
I am an AC parent and I would rather my son be taught that way and try to play the game, rather then be coached old school by relatives and cronies of hierarchy, and the appointed coaches being pushed to the side

guess that means you will be moving to Raiders next year then?

i think socca bs's a bit about being an ac parent

[Bomber]

Your lad didnt make it I take it?

[hurlcrook]

Your lad didnt make it I take it?

I don't even have a lad there.

At Socerroo level , you lose 6-0 , and you get the sack.
Are we expected to believe that playing from the back and losing 6-0 is a preference in junior divisions.
Give me a break!

[matty2323]

I thought the quality was really good. Enjoyed watching the kids play. Good to see kids at a young age have such good foundations in the 4 core skills. Weather wasn't the greatest the first few nights, but the kids were tremendous.

this is the reason we're developing playing from the back. 95% of those socceroos were educated in a time when the game was more direct, defenders weren't required to have technical competency. We get beat 6-0 by teams who're better at doing what we're trying to do. So yes, the preference at junior level is to develop playing out from the back. And then maybe in 12-15 years time when they kids are adults, they will be able to compete with these elite teams.

I'm new to SA but frequently told to look outside the state for junior development. We know some uncoordinated kids selected for the next SAP intake, even they themselves can't believe it. Although ready, our son is not eligible for SAP until next year and be it the rigid age criteria or politics, the perceptions are certainly not good out there.

If you perceive his is good enough to "make it".. Probably best to move him.. You won't be happy here.
