Disser Pointon Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 If anyone knows any kids looking for a game we have a friendly arranged in Musselburgh on Sunday with spaces available for trialists looking to join a squad. Even if they are registered for a team but maybe unhappy and looking for a move they could play with it being a friendly only. 1998 year birth only please drop me a pm for details.

Cheers Hi there Good for you I too run a 13's team and know how hard it is to get a squad together and keeping it together. However I think you need to be careful asking for trialists who may be signed with another team. I'm pretty sure there are strict guidelines even for training with another team while registered. Last thing you want to do is end up getting in trouble for a seemingly innocent trial request http://www.seryfa-online.info/notices.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, i hope your not a registered offical? No players signed with another club can train with another team, never mind playing for them. All Friendlies need a permit from the League Secretary. The permit ensures the game has adequate Insurance cover for the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disser Pointon Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Yes I am well aware of the requirement for a permit and have already admitted that my OP was ill thought out! Cheers Offer still open if any U13's (not connected to a club!) want a game. On that subject I think the rules are out of order. Whilst I appreciate that it is to stop players being poached regularly I dont think a kid should be precluded from having a trial with another club if he is unhappy at the club he is currently at, it is effectively tying them in at a very early age. Pro's and con's though I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disser Pointon Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 What division are your team in? (i'm not from SYFA/ER) Just interested... We were div 2 but recently withdrew as we lost a few boys. We are looking to recruit and rebuild through bounce games to rejoin after the summer.

We are looking to recruit through bounce games to rejoin after the summer. Cheers I guess there is no harm adding to this headed topic. We are currently a 4th Division team based in South Edinburgh and if there are any unattached boys/girls born in 1998 who would like to come along to training to see if they may be interested in joining us then please feel free. We have a very small squad so players of any ability are welcome, enjoyment of playing the game and learning is far more important. This is in no ways meant to hijack the Musselburgh player request thread, but may geographically appeal to different children or indeed ones who may wish to play at a slightly lower level. If anyone is interested please send me a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually have 4 girls in the squad. All good technical players and at this age as strong as the boys. It is a struggle especially at this level but the kids enjoyment is the main thing.

Agree completely, we withdrew because we were struggling to compete in div 2 with the players we had lost and it was killing the boys' confidence. Now that we are playing friendlies at a lower level they are enjoying themselves again and, as a result, playing better football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of interest, as I am involved in 2003's football in Fife, how did you 'lose' your players. It wasn't the result of poaching by other teams was it? We lost two 6/7 year olds last season that way & it is soul destroying when parents heads are turned because a club might have the most tenuous of links to a senior club - 6 year old ffs.

A combination of that and them having friends playing with other teams. Annoying but it goes with the territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
