FFSA NTC Teams struggling for numbers

Post by Sushi »

Tomorrow's NTC under 17 competition team has gift wrapped the game to Adelaide City.
Only 10 players available. And that's after taking 2 players from their team playing Under 16s also against Adelaide City.
So the Adelaide City 16s will also be gifted a result, a week after sacking their coach.

I did just notice their team sheet was a little light on for numbers. Probably making calls to get extra players. I know there are a few schools having week long camps at the moment. If that Adelaide city teams is pretty marginal dont be surprised if they still lose to a team that has no subs. Try not to stick the boot in too hard. A few of us have had kids play in very ordinary teams because players arent commited or clubs dont have enough quality coaches so they just shove any old dad in their who hasnt played soccer or coached before.

We will see how City goes from now on.

They obviously found 3 players before kickoff.
As of Saturday only 10 were named.
They had to include players from their 15s team as well.
Why are they struggling for numbers?
