    NSW U16 - schools, NSWJRU / SJRU / CRJU 2013

    Peter, I know of one boy that played in the opens whom I was told played above his years. Don't quote me on this but apparently he was told that he would be going back to 16's. My sons play alongside this fine young man in village and zone teams and although I would rather him not play two...

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2013

    I was once so brilliant at taking videos of the bugs on the ground and the clouds in the sky that that I would miss filming my boys especially when they were involved in the play or went over the chalk :rolleyes: . That has all been cured with a video camera with a viewfinder :). Now I just...

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    You appear to have a far better selection process. If you take your U16's as an example, you had eight Sydney teams with an approximately total of 200 players at the State Championships. That has been halved through the process of six teams playing four games and two teams playing five games...

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    Hugh, The Country team is selected at the NSW Country Championships and we have been advised that selection generally takes place during the pool games on the first day. Due to the number of matches being played it appears that selectors go from field to field carrying their clipboards and can...

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    Good evening. I have 15yld twins that have just been selected into the JGP and I believe it is a fantastic concept. The duration and intensity of the program is certainly going to test the resolve of many a player, especially with only a short break at Christmas. As for the selection...
