these days Buddy its called Sponsorship!!
Is the cost of junior fees the next crisis in Australian football?
i say this has been one of the best and productive lines of commentary about the game that i’ve read in a while. the think tanks in this room should make themselves available to organise and restructure the whole of Aus league.
Post Hoc your Football Association is exactly how association football should be run – hats off!!. 22 Association clubs and only 1 Representative Club servicing its football community from grassroots to development.
my football association has 23 clubs some attached with academies and unbeknown to their governing FA and with 7 NPL clubs tiers 1, 2, 3 and state league in its footprint. these NPL and academies just strip the life out of community football. i remember and still bear the disappointment when SAP debuted with 50 licenses distributed via FNSW, our U10 league dropped from the previous year of 101 teams to 61 teams in U11s. NPL SAP clubs soaked up whatever division 1 or 2 teams there were available. the system simply stinks.
we need more associations setup like Post Hoc’s

Great post buddy the more I read your comments the more i want to deploy the proverbial broom.
My thinking is all clubs should just return to their respective local association and let members of all ages and abilities enjoy their football. Their local football association should provide scouting or talent ID’ing then provide free training for the best players or as a centre of excellence.
Footballing states bodies can provide the next level of football excellence or AIS-esque for HAL, WL. National teams from joeys/young matildas, olyroos to socceroos/matildas.
Currently we have npl 1 2 3 and a state league or level 4 setup which benefits who? Not the emerging talents but those that can pay. This is factual.
The talent is out there but it’s not managed correctly.
