Exciting times ahead for both Prospect and St Pats! Welcome aboard Cooper and Hamish! 💛🤎💚
❗️JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT OFFICERS ❗️
In 2022 we entered into a partnership with the Prospect Hawks Football Club & formed the Memorandum of Understanding. Over the years, the progression included the introduction of under 18 men’s and Senior women’s teams to provide further pathways for graduating players to transition into the NTFA.
This collaborating partnership has included joint branding, facilitation of Auskick programs, Joint u16s/u18s boys and u17s/senior women’s training sessions, assistance at training sessions, committee cooperation & a continued focus on aligned goals ✅
Both the junior & senior club, particularly since the successful introduction to the NTFA Premier League in 2028 have identified the need to growth & strength our partnership 💪
As such & as previously mentioned, we formed the Junior Development Program with a shared vision to provide benefits to young boys/ girls playing for Prospect Hawks Junior Football Club, assisting their football and transition into the NTFA, with the key focus on participation & retention.
We are pleased to announce the clubs have appointed COOPER WARREN as the Junior Development Officer who will be supported in his role by, HAMISH BATEMAN.
Cooper & Hamish will focus on the u13 to u18 age groups, with further announcements to be made in respect to the Junior Development Officers providing support to the under 8s through to under 12s and more 🙌
These appointments are fantastic, both Cooper & Hamish are studying PE at UTAS; have experience working for AFL TAS, facilitating Auskick programs, junior coaching experience and Senior players in NTFA.
We look forward to sharing further news on this program 🟡🟢🟤🟡
