Our diverse and dedicated coaching team is made up of parent volunteers, youth coaches and professional coaches.

Our club thrives because of the passion, experience, and time these coaches bring to our athletes each week.

For the 25/26 season, we’re especially lucky to welcome a cohort of professional coaches whose expertise will add even more depth and support to our juniors and seniors programmes.
