INTERLEAGUE | UNDER 19’S SQUAD

The Eastern Football League will compete in Under 19’s interleague for the first time in more than 20 years.

Led by long term junior interleague Coach Wayne Judge, the Under 19’s EFL side will play the curtain raiser to the Senior game on May 21 vs. Geelong Football League.

Being a mid-season fixture, the league wanted to have as little impact as possible on player’s club commitments “Ideally we don’t want to impend club training sessions too much, we are running a short program in order lessen the impact on clubs.” Coach Wayne Judge.

The squad is made up of players from right across the Divisions, something that, in the selection process, Judge feels is both a blessing and a curse “Part of the challenge, in the first year was getting a handle on all the players, we have looked at players across all four Divisions, the selection process was largely reliant on the intel provided by clubs, “We would like to thank those clubs who made the effort to submit their players and assisted in the process”

The League has avoided picking those players currently playing with the Eastern Ranges, instead opting to give more top age Under 19’s a chance to pull on the Red, White and Black “We wanted to give these kids a chance to showcase their skills, outside of those already playing representative football at TAC Cup level. “Out of the 41 players in the initial squad 30 have already played senior football this season.”

The Under 19 squad will train next Monday night at Eastern Ranges – Kilsyth Rec. Reserve. A light training run will commence at 6:15pm with players asked to wear their club jumpers.
