Announcing our New World Premiership Men’s First Team Coaching Staff for the 2025 Season.

Ollie Hawkins will remain as Head Coach. Ollie is an OFC B Licensed Coach and is the Club's Director of Football, he has plenty of experience as a Senior Coach with positions as Head Coach in the Premiership in the 2020 season and also as an Assistant Coach in the Southern League in the 2022 season. 

He will be supported by two key coaches: Nathan Young, an OFC C Licensed Coach, who has been an assistant coach in this environment for the past 2 seasons. And Patrick Rousse, an OFC C Licensed Coach, will also be an assistant coach after a successful year within the Reserves as Head Coach.

In Ollie's words, "This coaching partnership started at the tail end of the 2024 season and proved to be effective. We all know how to operate in a performance team, and we also have engrained ourselves into the club over the past years, we couldn’t be more excited for what the season ahead brings!"
