Securing two premierships flags in 2013, the Newport Power Football Club is hungry to be part of all the Grand Final action in 2014, and according to new club President Stephen Martyn, they are doing everything they can to be there again is September.
Number of teams this year:
8x football teams this year including u9, u10, u11, u12, u13, u14, u16 and one senior team with our u18
Pre-season News:
It has been reasonably good, considering most kids have lots of other sports to do during the summer months as well as the start of a new year at school. We have opportunity for new players to join our club in all age groups, especially the older age groups. Many of the younger age groups will start training next week after the coming long weekend.
Keith Brown has stepped down as President of the Club. Keith will be missed, as he has put an enormous amount of critical foundation work within our club to help get it to where it is today. Stephen Martyn has been appointed President for the 2014 Season. Stephen Martyn has also taken on Football Operations with the assistance of two Age Group Football Coordinators. The Junior Football Coordinator (U9-U12’s) is Brett Collison and the Senior Age Group Football Coordinator is Jason Coghlan (U13-U18’s). Brett is also the U12 coach and Jason is also the U18 coach. The two coordinators will concentrate solely on the football side of the club.
Expectations for 2014:
To retain and attract as many good kids to the club as possible and then provide them with the best
possible place to learn how to play footy with both the skills of the game and how to play in any position on the ground. After last year’s success of winning our first two premierships at the club, we now want to continue the with the development of capability and knowledge of the kids in our various age groups so we can play in the highest divisions available within the WRFL.
Staff/coaching changes:
All coaches have either started as a new coach of the club or shifted age groups.
Brent McPherson - U9's (New Coach)
Paul Greenham – U10’s
