Desert clubs no longer in a league of their own.
BY SAMANTHA BURKE
The Great Western Deserts, now formalized, football league is setting out to help the youth of the region through the passion of AFL. The changes to league are having positive effects on the 135 registered players.
The league has run a variety of skill development programs and excursions as an incentive for players, to keep out of trouble and improve the league overall.
By changing the contest’s formal structure, with six teams now competing on a league ladder, players are given the opportunity to peruse a football career. Many football clubs run drafting programs, that Great western Desert League can be apart of.
Andrew Krakouer; Sandover Medal winner and Swan Districts star said ‘Some of these players, who dreamed of playing at a professional level, could have opportunities open up in Perth through Swan Districts, which ran a development program in the region.’
The Leagues positive influence has affected surrounding communities, with school attendance increasing along with club memberships.
April 10th will commence the Great Western Deserts season, and there are high hopes the players and the league.
