Sydney District Junior League 2024

[Vlad59]

Only 3 clubs these days but it looks like 49 teams - Bondi 17, Clovelly 24, Paddo 8.

I must be looking at something different but it ain’t much either way

Was out watching some A grade in the sydney combined comp. While it wasn't wonderful, it was very enjoyable and I think the standard is improving

The Central West Gold has only 5 teams, with Wenty, Hills, Mounties and Moorebank sides sitting below Sydney Shield level but the other team, East Hills will be the hot favourite with 3 of their juniors - Mitch Gray, Brad Cousins and Tristan Evans Tsoi have returned after several years playing with Ryde Eastwood. Those 3 along with another ex Ryde player, Angelo Panambalana, all scored tries in today's 42-6 win over Moorebank.

Central Coast rattled up 440 teams which is around 6500 to 7000 players

650 teams in Newcastle with over 11000 players. Highest proportion of senior teams of any league I’ve seen. They haven’t even bothered counting tag yet. It’s a huge comp

280 teams in the Illawarra district
359 teams in group 7

I guess yes if talking about WT, but no if talking about regions.
At the senior level the old Campbelltown clubs became Wests and have now effectively merged with Group 6. So Campbelltown City Kangaroos would play against G6 clubs now.
the junior / kids level is I think still seperate - but my son (he is 30 now) isn’t involved anymore so I don’t watch it now.

Be interesting to see the Illawarra & Sth Coast numbers when they become available.

I’ve posted them now

So 639 for Illa + G7 combined.
Not that far behind Newcastle.
