my youth school is rubbish, just keeping them to play in youth league...

2025-11-29 08:03:57
3 joined, 3 sacked. Have absolutely nothing good for weeks, nothing capable of even making up numbers to play in the league. lol
2025-11-29 09:50:47
I had 1 join today. He was no good.

4in 4out
2025-11-29 12:21:42

2025-11-29 14:44:06
2 in and both will stay as they depart in a few weeks.

Luca Howard 16 6 (adequate) outfield 6

After weeks of getting not many entrants I get 6 this week. Most of them absolute rubbish and trashed, the fact it is the end of the season doesn't help them either. Xavier Otto week 1 would be lovely but this stage of the season....in fact having looked they are all trash. :/

The best Xavier Otto would come out as a mid 19 yr old and not that high.

Francis Nichols 17 - 0 (tragic) outfield 2 - 1 (hopeless)
Xavier Otto - 16 - 4 (weak) outfield 34 - 11 (formidable) - 14 (brilliant)
Stuart Nyoni - 18 - 5 (average) outfield 7 - 6 (adequate) - 7 (good)
Glenn Alabi - 18 - 1 (hopeless) outfield 9 - 3 (poor) - 4 (weak)
Edward Oliphant - 18 - 0 (tragic) outfield 7 - 1 (hopeless) - 2 (unsatisfactory)
Bradley Ward - 17 - 5 (average) outfield 32 - 11 (formidable) - 14 (brilliant)

I got 3. 2 were tragic. 1 was 16 but he got binned too
2025-12-06 21:35:12
Got 4

1 Poor
3 Unsatisfactory

I generally try to keep everyone for a few weeks but they're all getting sacked after Thursday.

I got 2 crappies today.. but school overall looking good
2025-12-06 21:55:42
Think I'll put the U-19s ranking up shortly. We have some very good players at every age, but maybe not enough of them. Still it looks pretty healthy.

Stats for my last 11 weeks of juniors joining (i couldn't seem to go further back?)...i always leave the max 6 extra slots for Saturday's.

Junior Uptake 47% (31/66 - joined from a max of 66)
16yo 32% (10/31 - number of 16yo's / total juniors joined)
Retention 29% (9/31 - juniors kept as of writing)

Might start doing this moving forward, would be nice if others followed suit...let's actually see who is lucky(!) put your stats where your mouth is.

I don't track it consistently but I think it'd make an interesting new topic for next season.
2025-12-09 17:39:35
Where have you got those figures/stats and there’s not really anything that’s shining out atm as very good.
2025-12-09 18:05:41
You post in here each Saturday with your new youths :)

Certainly your 16yo intake is average. But most of my 16yo's were tragic. I'd like to put an average skill in too.

As for your 58% uptake, it's high compared to me but we don't have a baseline to know if that's good or not.
