🦢 2027 PRE-SEASON IS HERE! ❤️🤍

It's time to get back to work, Swannies!

We're kicking off our 2027 pre-season for our U17s and Senior teams on Sunday, 15 November at 12:30pm at Swan Park.

It's a chance to get back together, put in some work and start building towards the season ahead, as we bring our U17s and Senior players together and get the 2027 journey underway.

We'll wrap up training with a BBQ, so stick around and enjoy some time with your Swannies family!

Families and partners are more than welcome to come along and support as we kick off the new season.

New season. Fresh energy. One club. One goal.

🦢 2027 COACHING ANNOUNCEMENT – RESERVES 🦢

Going around again in 2027 is Ricky Gunson, returning as our Reserves Coach! ❤️🤍

A four-time premiership player with the Swans, Ricky brings a wealth of experience to the role, along with strong football knowledge developed throughout his playing career in Victoria.

His passion for player development and building depth across our senior program makes him a valuable part of the Swans family, particularly as we continue to create pathways for our young talent coming through from U17s.

After a challenging finish to last season, Ricky and the boys will be keen to get back to work, make amends and have a big say in 2027.

We're thrilled to have Ricky back in the coaching ranks for another season!

🦢 2027 YEPPON SWANS SENIOR COACH ANNOUNCEMENT 🦢

We are excited to announce Matt Fitzgerald as the Yeppoon Swans Senior Coach for the 2027 season! ❤️🤍

A message from Matt:
"Firstly, I'd like to thank the coaching committee and club committee for putting their trust in me and giving me the opportunity to lead the Yeppoon Swans Senior Team into the 2027 season.

I'm incredibly proud and excited to take on this role and look forward to the challenge of following in the footsteps of some great coaches who have come before me.

I'm looking forward to building on the club's proud history of success and showing the rest of the competition that the Swans are far from finished when it comes to success.

I'm passionate about developing our young talent and creating opportunities for our juniors to come through and become an important part of our senior teams.

Alongside that, I'm excited to introduce a fresh game plan, build a strong team culture and bring an exciting brand of football that our players, supporters and club can be proud of.

The goal is simple: work hard, play for each other and get the Yeppoon Swans back where we belong."

❤️ SUPPORTING TOMMY ❤️

One of our own is facing an incredibly tough battle.

Tommy and his fiancée Emma are navigating Tommy’s cancer diagnosis and treatment, and you can help support them through a GoFundMe set up by his brother, Mitch, to help ease some of the financial pressure while they focus on his treatment and recovery.

Tommy and Emma have been part of our Swans family for a couple of years now, and we know the strength of our club comes from the people who stand together, on and off the field.

If you’re able to donate, any contribution would be greatly appreciated. If you can’t donate, sharing the fundraiser can make a real difference too.

Sending all our love and strength to Tommy, Emma and the entire family. ❤️🤍🦢
