I don't understand the structure of the junior competitions compared to the state teams in SA. From what i can gather there's a northern and southern association and a few others which go up to colts that are totally unconnected to any NPL/state and even amateur clubs. Of the NPL clubs whole areas are unrepresented and probably only parahills and modbury could be considered inclusive. Overall it’s a nice way to squander support and talent.

I am actually going to look on in interest to see how our state league sides back up with two games (one of saturday the other on Monday) in the space of two days. Hope this doesn't thin the squads. They will need to play smart this weekend.

Cove are disappointing me greatly :( The good thing is their junior structure for the future. Looking forward (if it happens) to the West Adelaide v Cove game on Monday before MH beating AUFC :(

The highlight of the season, so far, has been the Gawler coach's idea of how he will coach his team this season. He said that many of them still didn't know the basics of football and wanted them to, "Get it, kick it, get it, kick it, get it, kick it."

They are apart of the NPL banner and are in the second tier state league. Premier league now is the states top tier.

The second tier play each other home and away which is 30 games of which there are no finals. Top two at the end of the season are promoted to the premier league.

Not sure in future seasons whether there will be a forced culling of clubs as its seems the likely medium is each tier should be a maximum of of 12 teams.

Only have started following state league more closely this year.

is this your npl teams for next season

Ok the south Australian premier league and state league kickoff last night. 2 games in Premier league an state league.
