Following Gareth's decision to step down from the Head Coach role, everyone involved with the club would like to pass on our thanks to Gareth for his hard work over the past six seasons. We will celebrate in style during Friday night's Open Age Presentation night (more of that later) and in the meantime, we must begin the task of finding a new Head Coach.

An advertisement for the role will be placed later this week, but we wanted to make this announcement to our members and supporters first. Here's the ad that will be going out shortly:
