Anyone know what the youngest age group is to become a Jet? My son is only 3 but I it will take a few years of nagging the missus to convince her to let him play :lol:

Umm, no they do. The Junior Jets play in the Souths Juniors competition.

The Under sixes has several divisions. Some kids as young as 4 play in the lower divisions.

Hey,

I coached an under 11's side last year that had not one a match in two seasons.

This changed under BTJ with victories coming left right and centre.

Plenty of coaches around that can't play.

I just happen to be a star at both aspects of the game.

how many clubs do the Newtown Juniors have? I am having an arguement about Newtown and Juniors - he is stating they are all Souths Juniors..

It is a unique arrangement and there are arguments for saying, "you're both right." They are Newtown Juniors playing in the Souths Juniors competition in the sense that the club, through representatives, run and fund the club.

But unlike the Easts Juniors that play in the Souths Juniors competition, Souths Juniors contributes to the funding of the Newtown JRFLC, so they have claims to calling them, "Souths Juniors," and should the ocassion arise, Souths would be able to pick players from Newtown JRLFC to play in Souths Junior Rep squads. However, Newtown were able to secure a special arrangement that will see the Newtown RLFC claim a development fee should a player come good out of the club (maybe brendo, maybe someone else).

It's been said on this forum before that Newtown would ideally have funds to claim a district of its own, as it used to. But the funds aren't there so this is the best arrangement possible.

the good thing is about being a junior jet is you get access to the best newtown has to offer.

BTJ.

I can give you a big serving of heart, something which many players these days are lacking.
