on the web site sportingpulse.com it says that the under 16 boys div 5 are having 2 teams with a bye each week.Now i know its just div 5 and most of you wont care but that just seems stupid.

hey chill out on the div 5 bashing.
It does seem a bit redundant to put two teams a week on byes. Maybe you should contact the association and see if they actually realised this.

Good on you David you tool. If it was not for the many hundereds of Div 4 & 5 kids paying their subs each season the div 1 & 2's would be paying a whole lot more to play and you would be on here complaining about it!
TOOL!
Tool Spotter,
What you really meant to say was ... if it wasn't for the Div 1's and 2's the Div 4's and 5's would be paying a whole lot more to pay!!!! But I agree ... David, you are a tool!

Don't knock div 4/5 teams in under 16 you may see them develop well over the next couple of years and end up taking your spots in div 1/2 a lot of growing can happen, and as I've seen they are a few good little blokes out in that div, that could easily play higher grades when they develop

i heard that paul rogers and nathan hawkes was playing u16 div 4 at one stage of their junior career any truth in this?
can u stop with the div 5 bashing you dont know why they are in div 5 sometimes people can start things late but if its there thing they can move up very fast. also when i played half our div 3 team didnt turn up to training a lot so the head coach put them down to div 4 so half the div 4 and 5 team was div 3.
I started in Under 14 5.2s and now am playing 18 1s. Given the opportunity, a lot of those guys can become good players.
To answer the topic question, the court availability may be the case.

It might be the program WAS one bye, and one team dropped out, therefore two byes, OR change the program. AND you play u16 div 5 when u are 14 then go into div 1 0r 2 the next year, David
