The teams are fairly large. This is for three main reasons: 1) We want to test some methods of line-balance and 'time on field' management, 2) We want to assess a range of players in pressure games at tournaments. 3) These tournaments are not our end goal and are working towards ourgreater plan for Prague.

Thanks for everyone's continued efforts so far this season. Congratulations to those selected and if you missed out we encourage you to continue to come to training and improve your skills to take advantage of every future opportunity that Kaboom, Factory Girls and Fyshwick United will provide you.

If you have any questions for the selectors, please reply to this email and I'll pass those questions along.
