CLUBS VOTE TO APPLY FOR STATE & YOUTH LEAGUE PLACE IN 2011
At Tuesday night's council of clubs meeting, the direction for"football beyond grass roots" for the Nepean district was decided by the member clubs.
The clubs voted overwhelmingly to set up an entity to organize an application to FNSW to enter state and youth league for 2011 and beyond. The meeting capped off a nine month process, examining the pros and cons of such a venture. A number of models have been examined and voted upon and clubs were asked to vote on each occasion to ensure that the final outcome genuinely represents the wishes of member clubsd and their management committees.
Funding for the new entity was probably the most controversial as is often the case and a lively debate took place with opinions expressed ranging from a self funded model to a fully subsidised entity from grass roots members. The final decision was a compromise with clubs voting for a three year $10 competition player levy to part subsidise the new entity.
The next stage will be to establish a steering committee, find a name for the club and draw up documents relating to constitution, aims and objectives and overall philosophy. The entity will have a separate identity but will reflect the aspirations, philosophy and aims and objectives that reflect the assocxiation as a whole, so the consultative approach will continue for several months yet.
If you are a member of NDSFA and are interested in being involved in a steerering committee that will be responsible for the birth of the new club, please contact the association office and leave your details with a staff member so that you can be contacted as the project gathers pace.

ST MARY'S BAND CLUB CELEBRATES 50 YEARS
Published 2June10 at 15:10pm
In 1960 two members of the St Mary’s District Band Club decided to get together a soccer team. They found enough boys interested, the oldest being 13 years of age, so one team was entered into the under 14 division with the Granville Federation. Every week this team would have to travel to the Granville, Auburn District to play. The closest game they played was against a Blacktown Club, at this stage there was no Nepean District Association.
Penrith Council granted permission to this newly formed team/club to use Victoria Park (across the road from the St Mary’s District Band Club) as their home ground. There were no goal posts at the park so this meant that goal posts were transported to Victoria Park, erected and dismantles before and after every home game. Even though this team of young boys did not win a game all season they put their heart and soul into every game they played. The shirts were 2 tones blue and all one size so that the shirts would fit anyone and everyone, on some of the small boys the shirts came down past their knees.

RED CARDS - THE BASICS - READ THIS AND THEN THE BY-LAWS SECTION 19
The association receives many inquiries from our member clubs and players and interested parties in relation to send offs and the processes adopted by the association.
Each association has its own set of local by-laws although the area of send offs is gradually becoming more uniform as our governing body attempts to bring about a system where if you are sent off in one district for serious foul play, you are likely to receive the same sentence as you would in a neighbouring district.
