SVN is infinitelly easier, and more understandable by juniors. Its also well known and supported by huge number of tools and virtually any OS - even GitHub supports git via svn clients.
It is central only, has sequential revision numbers, you don't need to pull others code if you work on some stuff that is unrelated to them, it can grab any part of repository (a folder or file), supports metadata on anything (key value store), can contain subrepositories (like git submodules) etc.
I always use it when I work with non technical people. That was mostly on larger static sites where SVN makes collaboration part easy.
On Windows, you can install Visual SVN Server in a matter of seconds (most of features are free) and it has nice Web UI, AD integration, PowerShell management and other nice stuff... TortoiseSVN has idential interface as that of git and also allows you to have private server by just creating a local folder.
