@KevWeir1@number_6teen@sturge_p I have a bigger issue with kids playing 11v11 at 12 years old.
Causes teams to fold due to number of players needed, tiny goalie's playing in adult goals, and kids barely getting a kick of the ball all match.
I hope this also gets addressed as part of the shake up
Wonder why such unfriendliness? Reminder: Dover Chairman Parmenter was Director of the National League board responsible for much-criticised funding distributions during Covid. Maidstone and other clubs were shafted. As shown by the 2022 documentary film…. @gatemoneydoc
@sturge_p I'm not sold on the idea of 2v2 or 3v3 yet.
Can't help but think 4v4 would be a better option, and allow outfield players to play in triangles and the GK to form a diamond.
@sturge_p Couldn't agree more on the 11v11. It's ridiculous the size of the pitch compared to the size of the players, GK especially.
Also feel it's a reason lots of teams fold in the older age groups as it's hard to recruit squads of 15, and comes at the cost of other team's existence.
