The Fun Of ‘Footy’ Attracts Kids to North Delta

The NDJAFL is entering its 16 yr and we had a few players in the International Cup playing for Canada. The captain of the men's team Justen Oertel, Robin MacDonald, Clay Lund and Quinn Hoobs all came for our league and Marlena Ginnochio would have been one of the top women had she not been injured and Jaya Aulkah was from our league and the youngest player on the team. We also have many of our past players playing for the Bayhawks and right now we have a 16yr old from our league Rachel kilbraid training with the Port Melbourne women's team.

Great! Thanks 'Spike 23' for the info on NDJAFL players who have continued playing footy and even gone on to "star" for Canada.
That is well worth a story on its own about successful grassroots footy in Canada. I would guess that there are very few international leagues who can boast that many 'juniors' graduating into the National Team.

So, I did actually watch NDJAFL graduates play at IC17. WOW!

The NDJFL story has been told many times with the junior club being partly responsible for feeding the senior club. The International Cup angle hasn't been told though..

The biggest part of this story remains unrecognized, that is, football cannot keep up with demand from schools in the area. What does it take to get a little support and leverage a HUGE gain ? .
