The Bloods are pleased to announce our coaching panel for the 2018 Season.
Aaron Tymms takes control as the Senior Coach. Tymms, who played over 400 games at Albion in the WRFL and coached them from 2014 to 2016, is a familiar face at Melton after spending 2017 with the club as an Assistant Coach.
Joining Tymms in the Coaches Box will be Leigh Wilson. Wilson has a decorated playing career which includes time at Bacchus Marsh, Melton Central, Keilor and more recently the past two seasons with Albion.
Club legend Andrew Button remains with the Club as an Assistant Coach after returning to the Bloods in 2017 from Daylesford.
Ray Newman, who has been involved with the football department in recent years as a coach of our 18s and runner at Senior level, will step up and have a match day Assistant Coaching role with the Senior team. Newman was recently promoted to Vice President on the Bloods Committee.
Daniel Dimech has joined the Bloods as Reserves Coach. Dimech has experience coaching Under 16 and Under 18 teams at Hoppers Crossing and Avondale Heights, while more recently held roles with Senior teams at Avondale Heights and Wyndhamvale.
Bob Heaney is back at the Bloods looking after the Under 18.5s. Heaney, a former Senior and Reserves coach with the club has more recently been involved at the Junior Club as a coach of the U16.5s in 2016.
Football Manager Brad Jamison is happy to have a coaching group locked away early into the pre-season. “We are pleased with the Coaching Group that has been assembled for next year. The feedback from the playing group two weeks into training has been excellent. A strong coaching group who have the credentials to teach and educate our younger players was crucial in our selection of coaches, and we feel we’ve got a really good mix of experience throughout the entire coaching panel”.
The first two weeks of pre-season training has been completed, and with over 60 players on the track last week it’s been a positive start to a long 2018 campaign ahead for the Bloods!
