@Guru…sorry I think that Umgungundlovu is a bit far for you to travel, even if you are willing.

Having an u9 team and u11 is awesome. Keep up the good work.

Thanx for elaborating on the sporting structure. It is the same , mostly, world over.Getting it to work , is down up. We perhaps indirectly are getting the leadership we deserve. U want change , get involved.

I think with this understanding we can look to go forward.

Am in for development “fee ” for ball. No matter how little, it will be more than there is at the moment.

Zeke, is your league open to anyone?? Will be interested next time you have it.
Am looking for Prep games in and around Gauteng. Must be a school structure with U/9 to U12.

Willing to travel.

I consider myself the Teacher as ballers are proving quite ignorant.

just to jime in about costs.

The guys that we have working here are doing a good job. We have a mini league running for just october as varsity exams are looming. They have come up with innovative approach.

Cost per team is R 800. If you can pay then fine. If not then your team is on duty to set up the venue and supply ref/scorer etc. The venues are mostly outdoor, but those teams with home floors can ask to use them. It seems to be working well at the moment, but we’ll see. If wanna play then thats the set up. The more financial able clubs pay the way, so to speak, for the little ones.

@Joe… easy my man, this isn’t a committee meeting, that kind of language is reserved for people who run board meetings. Are you part of BSA

And I bet that some of you are thinking that it’s going to be a lot of money that you will need to contribute to such a movement but I say that even a R1 could make a difference to the survival of the sport in your community.

But before we even get to that stage there is a lot of ground work to be done and we need to rally behind one focal point and go for it…

Anyway I think that is where we have to start…

Hey Guys,

@Cabby, I will look into it… One positive to come out of this discussion is the realization that we need to adopt a bottom up approach and focus on the future of the sport.

I even think that we should all look to fund such a movement if possible… Who else is going to anyway? I mean I know that government will not fund it unless the house is in order and the house will not be in order unless the districts and the provinces are in order.. Kind of a vicious circle to be honest.. We need to stand up and be counted..

Just thinking out loud and adding my thoughts to the forum…

ciao,V

Perhaps Victor should create a registration area where all foot soldiers looking to get involved can register so that we can know who we are dealing with and where they are based. This will help us plan better.

Lebatha

YOUR COMMENTS ARE OUT OF ORDER.

Please raise your concern in the appropriate forum as we are now only discussing SOLUTIONS.

well i agree with u Lebatha, i watch the game also, i think what he has learn from hungary was the waste of money and time, i realy don’t like his style of coaching, when a player make a mistake he sub him, he doesn’t give a player to ajust in the game, thats why the national team did so bad in Libya.
