Is it fair in U10?

Can people please remember this is under 10's. In primary schools today, kids can not compete as us ( supposed adults) competed. Understanding our game is unique, other sports can not have ladders, scores, best players etc. Where do we get off in saying this is an open season! The whole idea, especially with the cost in playing our game, is to encourage. I agree in that the better teams may be disadvantaged, however it should be all about the children. Who knows, the next Gaze/Sporn may not want to play, if to start with, they can't compete, it may be they think, this game is not for me. We all should understand it is tough to get not only the children to play, but the parents to pay. Get a Div 2 competition happening even if there are only 4 teams in each division, we are all better off playing each team 3 or 4 times and being competitive than getting thumped by 4 teams and being disenheartened with the risk of kids losing interest.

The real question is why the number of U10 girls' teams has fallen, so that there's no longer a Div 2. Apparently very few U10 girls turned up at some clubs' recent trials. Do we need better recruiting,or do parents need to get their little potatoes off the couches?

Never said I was mate, just that you’re general behaviour is cowardly, but I’ll continue to put you in your place
