Yoogali Football Club, Yoogali Soccer Club, Hanwood Football Club and Wests Soccer Club are set to throw their names into the ring ahead of the submission deadline on Monday.

Masterminds of the CSL are planning to develop a competition that is the best outside of the A-League and metropolitan premier leagues.

Clubs interested in getting on board had to move quickly this week after the Griffith District Football Association agreed to release any teams that wished the join the CSL.

YSC president Paul Fisher, who has been one of the CSL’s biggest supporters, said it was great to finally know where the top team will be playing in 2012.

“As (Griffith) vice-president we’ve got a very exciting time ahead of us, and for my club Yoogali Soccer Club, it’s going to be a big challenge but we’re not going to go down there to come second,” Fisher said.

Leading up to their decision this week, the Magpies were seen as one of the few teams that could have gone either way with their decision to join the CSL or not.

But after storming into last year’s Griffith grand finals, senior players made it clear at a meeting on Tuesday night this week they wanted to keep pushing their boundaries.

“We really want to look after the local comp, but it looks like we’re going to join the super league,” Wests’ Anthony Vecchio said.

“It all comes down to what the players want, they have spoken this time and the majority of the senior players want to go because they see it as an opportunity to enhance the quality of players in the competition.

“Our club has done a lot in the last couple of years to get our juniors up and running and stronger with our academy, so our first priority as a club is to maintain the quality in the Griffith competition, so we’ll do that as well as look to join the super league.”
