if you have a u18s you need a full scholarship to keep the player development/numbers to see you through each year, widnes have done their scholarship correctly over the past X amount of years, they then started their u18s ( who are going great guns this year ) & they have progressed into the top candidate for a super league franchise this year.
How do you know who your ten scholars are when they don't need to have signed until sept 1st?! Or will they be from last years team? In which case you had like 20ish lads in both age groups
it is noboddys fault,
1st if we had a u18s we would be allowed to run a full a scholarship
2nd the money you have to put into a scholarship is unbeleivable, plus the LISA money used to fund this,
which now goes to the club towards players,
3rd the rfl have told championship clubs they can only have 10players at each age group at scholarship to save money for both club & rfl,
SO DOWN TO IT ALL ITS ABOUT MONEY FOR BOTH CLUB & RFL
alright,fault was the wrong word to use.
what it boils down to is,we cant afford to run a u18s and a scholership,so the rfl have said..because you cant afford to run a u18s we are not going to allow you to run a scholarship 'is that it'
Quoteitsatry!="itsatry!"Been told by someone who was once something to do with the 18s that Leigh are not allowed to run an 18s due to something that happened .'"
i thought we were getting to the bottom of this conundrum and then you go and throw this in..mi eds stating to bang again now
