    Unforgettable Characters in Football A series of articles written by H.A.de Lacy during the 1941 VFL football season and published in The Sporting Globe. Peter Burns Henry “Tracker” Young Albert Thurgood Henry “Ivo” Crapp Dick Lee Syd and Gordon Coventry Roy Park Jack Worrall Ivor Warne-Smith Hughie James Percy Parratt & Jimmy Freake Horrie Clover Roy Cazaly Alan and Vic Belcher Vic Cumberland Tom Fitzmaurice Rod McGregor Dave McNamara Albert Chadwick PETER BURNS Greatest Player Game Has Produced May 3, 1941 – https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/180297522 When I walked into the South Melbourne training room on Thursday night and asked a group of old timers, "Did any of YOU fellows play with Peter Burns when he was here?'' work stopped. Billy Windley left off lacing a football. "Joker" Hall allowed the compress on Eric Huxtables ankle to go cold, and Jim O'Meara walked across the room with a pencil sticking out of the side of his mouth, while one of the present-day Southern stalwarts stood half naked Waiting for the guernsey that Jim carried away in his hand. I had struck a magic chord collectively and individually all three said play with Peter — he was the greatest player the game has produced and a gentleman in all things." Well it was certainly nice to have them unanimous about It. and so definite too. I wanted Information and I got it in one hot blast of enthusiasm. Peter Burns — what a man; what a footballer, they all agreed. Today in the South Melbourne room working side by side at the moulding of a younger side.

  • Appendix 2: Youth Girls Rules 13-15 Year Olds
    APPENDIX 2: YOUTH GIRLS RULES 13-15 YEAR OLDS 12-A-SIDE OR 15-A-SIDE: AT AFL AUSKICK PROGRAM OR IN CLUB/SCHOOL COMPETITION PURPOSE To provide youth girl’s with a fun, safe and positive experience through a well structured match program that considers the level of maturation in motor, cognitive, psychosocial and emotional skill 2of adolescents in this age group. The consolidation of basic game specific skills is still the focus at this age level rather than competition and winning, while further developing technical and tactical concepts1. These concepts include position specific, and basic performance capacities – e.g. warm up, cool down, nutrition, hydration, recovery and goal-setting. SPIRIT OF THE GAME Prior to the commencement of play: • all players, coaches and umpires should gather on the ground and shake hands • the umpire and coaches should ensure that players are aware of the rules and procedures to be followed in the conduct of the game The spirit of the game is to give all available players a game of football. Therefore: • where difficulty occurs fielding full numbers, both coaches must agree to even up player numbers. • excess players should be given to the opposition team if they are unable to field the required numbers. • coaches should consider modifying the numbers per side to ensure all players participate (for instance, if planning 9-a-side but only 12 players in total are available: play 6-a-side. Or if 30 players are available, simultaneously play two games of 6-a-side, or one 9-a-side game with one 6-a-side game) The umpire should at all times: • endeavour to apply the rules of the games whilst preferring to award kicks to players in preference to calling for “ball-ups” • understand that the spirit of the AFL junior match rules for this age group is to enable all players to gather possession and that “The player in possession of the ball should be given every opportunity to kick or handball”.

Penalty for Infringement Each team will be given one warning with players allowed to return to the correct zone. (Warning applies only in the first three quarters but does not apply in the last quarter. Season 2019) The penalty for non-compliance shall be a free kick to the opposing ruck, with the free kick being awarded at the top of their forward line goal square. Any Player(s) who deliberately breaks the starting position line prior to ball leaving the umpire’s hands at a centre throw up, will be penalised with a free kick being awarded as above. Questions Questions 1. How much time do the players have to set up in starting positions after goal? Teams to set up while the ball is being returned to the centre. 2.
