Newcastle City youngster Josh Nesbitt (pictured front left) has just been selected in the AFL NSW/ACT State Under 16's State Development Squad for this weekend's camp at the Sydney Academy of Sport, Narrabeen.
The Squads were selected following last week's U15 and U16 Zone State Trials at St Ignatius' College, Riverview.
Under 16 assistant coaches Tim Barling, Gary Parsons and Leigh McPhan, along with under 15 assistants James Walton and Craig Mannagh were part of the selection committee, who took the following elements into consideration when picking squads:
- Match performances at Zone Trials
- Feedback from AFL club recruiting staff at Zone Trials
- Being able to play a specific role within the team structure both onfield & off field
- The ability to listen to and apply both individual and team feedback at zone level
- The physical attributes and skills necessary to excel at the next level
Congratulations Nessi and we wish you the best of luck at this weekend's camp!
