lynne makes the most of what she has got. If trends stay the way they are going in a year or two - woodville will easily surpass west as the dominant girl's club in the north western 'burbs

Wow...great to see Nikki coming down to the Warriors. Hopefully she enjoys her summer enough to hang around for the winter season as well...but then she will probably want to head back to Cairns for the Adelaide winter (who can blame her??)

Issac, Before you take off my post, what i said what by Woodville playing Under 12s is not against BASA rules. The rules states that if Under 10s don't turn 1o in the term that they are allowed to play. I just don't appreciate clubs ie Woodville, bragging that they have a super team when other clubs like Sturt, Southern and South are sticking by the normal guidelines and playing legimate kids in the right grade. Like I said it a disgrace and it is worst when clubs brag about it.

I don't know the rules or the facts in this situation. What I was suggesting was that you talk to your club about it or contact Woodville about it.

I don't need to cry because Woodville are doing there kids harm by not playing them in the right division. As far a i'm concerned they can keep waiting to win until they get themselves a real development program!

Winning is doing them harmis it. where as getting beaten everyweek by 40,50,60,70 points is better for them is it. and how do u no that they are over aged any way? what if they are all just second years and r bigger and stronger than everyone else? finally, if it is with in the rules there is no problems with it is there hey. if your so dam worried about it, go to basa and complain to them. dont come on here and cry about it, do something about.

WARRIORS!

No, winning by 50+ points isn't any better than losing by 50+ points. Either way, it's in no-one's best interests - neither the winning nor losing teams gain much, and both are less likely to keep playing than they would if they were regularly playing close games.

"In the Know" is correct in that the rule currently allows for 9 year olds to play Under 10s, if they don't turn 10 before the end of the season. This exception to the standard age groupings has been in place for some time now, but most clubs have ignored it, and instead opted to follow the same rules in every age group. I am led to believe that the exception will be abolished at the end of this (Summer) season, after which time the players concerned will be forced to play in Under 12s.

I would hope that when Woodville made the decision to play this team in Under 10s, they didn't anticipate that the team would dominate the competition, and that it wasn't a case of "these girls have been thrashed for a while, so now it's time for them to do some thrashing of their own". I'm sure that the team could have found more appropriate competition in one of the Under 12 divisions.

if woodville are winning - good for them - jodie is too much on the straight and narrow to play older girls.

however - that doesn't mean the parents are fudging date of birth - so a kid can play with friends.

woodvile used to have the two tallest girls in u12 div 1 - everyone questioned that - but they were legit u12s - now all the other girls have grown - and no one grizzles.

good on you jopdie - you are a basketball treasure - hope you take all before you!

the girls are in div 1 / - put them in a higher grade ? say what

maybe they could challenge an u12 tema somewhere ?

maybe the green machine has anothet team of female invincibles on the way - AKA gates, cummins, porplycia from a few years ago !

at least when they r up but heaps, jodie pulls them back to at least a half court D to give them half a chance at scoring. unlike some other teams of the past that just stayed in a full court press. not nameing any clubs at all

vincent is spot on - under the current u10 - 4 term season - you can run kids in term 4 as top age u10s that would have formerly gone in as bottom age u12s.

if this is the case - after new year - they will be in u12s

why is everyone astounded/ - jodies works hard - knows her stuff and has a good eye for talent - maybe she has got it right !

I can't beleive the crap that woodville people write! Some clubs will do anything for a win. Its funny though because when these older girls go to 12's they will only spend one year there because they are spending more time in 10's, so Woodville are actually doing more harm to these kids than they think.

We will see who is crying when these kids play Under 12's and getting thrashed. The 'green machine' should drive over to Port Adelaide and join West, then you might actually have a chance to win something.

Until then keep working at it, but do it the right way and for the best of the kids. If Woodville are doing it right then they will be State Champions in May, and if they do, i WILL APOLOGISE, BUT until then the jury is out to say this a championship team. The team to beat is North and Forestville.

west's junior girls at present (u14 down) = rearringing deck chairs on the titanic.

the only lesson you will learn down the port with this group is; no recruiting = no result.

west's only u14s have been forfeiting, so they have 2 teams between u10 and u14s - at least woodies have 7.

If west were so much better - tell me why a couple of years ago - their head u14 girls coach was busted poaching woodie girls at state champs

it is hard work getting it together, you must have a vision, then stop at nothing

I personally think woodville and west girl's programmes should amalgamate - you would have 26 teams and they would be awesome - I'm talking top in a lot of age groups.
