Not even a point for Missing.
This has to be an early April Fools day joke.
If not
How will these poor kiddies ever get to experience the thrill of Missing & getting an Unco point
No scoreboard, ladder or match results for junior footballers under changes to be unveiled by AFL
CHILDREN will be banned from playing to win, keeping score and best and fairest awards under Australia-wide changes to junior football developed by the AFL.
Thousands of junior footballers in up to 150 leagues will be forced to play with no scoreboard, ladders or match results under the shake-up designed to promote participation rather than competition.
Footy-loving kids will this year also be barred from representative sides, play on smaller grounds, in smaller teams for less time under changes to be unveiled by the AFL in the next fortnight.
The scoring ban, previously restricted to under-8 and, in some cases, under-9 competition in Victoria, will this year be phased into many under-10 competitions.
Other leagues will phase in some changes this year and the remainder next year.
AFL national development manager Josh Vanderloo said the new rules had been drafted in consultation with leagues to give children “an enjoyment philosophy rather than a winning philosophy’’.
“Our research shows that kids play the game to have fun and not just to win,’’ he said.
“This game is for kids and these rules and regulations have been prescribed for kids so it will be better for them.’’

If it is a joke they have hooked plenty..
In the comments there are a lot of angry parents /coaches/volunteers etc.
If it is real ..Oh my.
Kids are naturally competitive,& learning to win & lose gracefully is a part of growing up.

Re: Not even a point for Missing.
I know of a number of junior leagues who have done this at Under 10 level for years. This is not new and it's nothing to be concerned about. I don't think it's an April Fool's joke, but rather it shows how many parents have their kids in the game for the wrong reasons.

Re: Not even a point for Missing.
Jesus! Way to kill that competitive edge!! Imagine what the basketcase league will look like in 20 odd years, what with a bunch of softies runnin round thinking it doesn't matter if you win or lose, its how you play the game
Are the afl for real about this?

it doesCracker wrote:. I believe rugby league does this also to a certain age.
nothing of the sort
it only omits the finals & a table for age groups up to 10 .. & this occurs only in some districts with the others playing finals from age 6 ..
but they ALL keep score
every result is registered
& published for all to see
our kids know if they won or lost
plus they play in organised carnivals in lieu of finals that have ...... winners !!
this is seriously as silly as it gets

Re: Not even a point for Missing.
The system has been in operation for many years in WA without problem.
It actually improves the kids math's ability as they compute the scores and cannot rely on the scoreboard.

Re: Not even a point for Missing.
Have a cry Dave. The kids will vote with their feet. If they don't like it theyll play something else. Most 9 year olds would be told to ignore the scoreboard and just play the game for fun anyway
