Fire are delighted to confirm our SAP coaching appointments for the 2019 season.
The SAP coaching team is set to be the most experienced and qualified on the Sunshine Coast.
The coaching team will be headed by new Fire arrival Gareth Thomson, supported by Mitch Cattermole, Dane Dawson, Shane Wills and Melvyn Wilkes.
The entire team has a wealth of experience coaching elite football with internationally recognised coaching licenses.
SAP Director Gareth Thomson is confident and excited for what the coming year will bring.
“The coaching staff we have put in place this year will set the benchmark for years to come,” he said.
“With so much experience and expertise, I believe we can quickly put in place our development plan that will serve our young players well in their journey with the club.”
Preseason kicks off the first week of November and the club looks forward to welcoming its newest members into the fold.
There are a select few spots open for our U9’s to U11’s age groups to allow further players to trial, please email Gareth Thomson at sap@sunshinecoastfc.com.au if you feel your child meets the required level.
