Junior results
These are the current results of the junior season. Taking each teams current position on the ladder and averaging them for each club. You will need to conisder that this is pure data and therefore has some anomolies. For example West Adelaide Girls program has grades where they do not have a div 1 team, but their div 2 team is doing well, whichmay incrase their average position. Some clubs have 2 teams in high grades which may decrease their average position

Form this data I would say that Southern is on the improve, but their girls program is holding them back. Perhpas why they are advertising.
I would rank Woodville above Centrals and Eastern. Looks like they put their teams in Div 1 whereas Eastern and Centrals do not.
Norwood are getting the most kids. But that does not necessarily result in winning teams.
Forestville talk a good game about how well they do, but the stats say that they are middle of the range.
Norths girls are still strong, but their boys are not as good as years past.
Sturt are clearly ahead overall, but their girls are not top, nor that much in front of other clubs.
South look to be decreasing in numbers, and are slipping in results as well.
Overall the girls comp is closer than the boys.
Thought's anyone!
