Expectations
  Pathway players are entering a commitment to be
available for the 2016-17 season. Neither club can
afford to waste scarce resources on players who
are unavailable for selection.
  If players are unavailable they must communicate
this with their registered club at least one match
prior to selections (unless unavoidable and in that
event ASAP).
  Players habitually unavailable will be cut from the
Pathway squad.
  Players are expected to train to improve and under
the instruction of the coaching staff.

purpose of the pathway is to gain entry and that
requires a commitment to continuous improvement.
  Pathway players must wear training apparel at all
training sessions.
