THE West Australian Football League has scheduled three Colts games to be played at Brownes Stadium this Saturday, July 20 to increase recruiting opportunities for young players.
With the support of the Perth Football Club, three Round 18 WAFL Colts games will be played at Brownes Stadium, with the first to commence at 9.05am and the last kicking off at 2.05pm.
The East Perth v Swan Districts Colts game will be played after the League match at Medibank Stadium, commencing at 5pm.
West Australian Football Commission State Pathways Manager Darren Davis said the Colts Super Round initiative had been backed by WAFL Football Managers, Player Development Officers and Colts coaches since its introduction in 2011.
“It provides a great opportunity to showcase three Colts games at one venue on the same day and allows AFL recruiting staff to view all four matches on one weekend,” Davis said.
“We are looking forward to what should be a great day for our WAFL Colts. We are committed to showcasing young talent and fixture games whenever possible to accommodate talent and recruiting outcomes.
“This will be the third season we have played a Colts Super Round as we see great value in this concept.”
