New Coaches for West Coast Eagles State Amateur Colts

THE West Coast Eagles State Amateur Colts team are set to take on the CBH Country Colts next Friday, the 13th May at Sir Ross McLarty Oval in Pinjarra with a new look coaching line up.

Daine Burnett heads up the new coaching panel, taking over from Andy Leinasars who moves on after a successful time with the program. Burnett is a Level 3 accredited coach who has extensive experience in player development, spending time as part of the State 16’s coaching panel.

Joining Burnett are Clint Gardiner, Devin Martin and Sam Cavicchio, all who have experience in player development. Gardiner has spent time in the WAFL Development Program and at amateur level and Martin has experience in the WAFL Development Program, WAFL Colts and amateur level.

Sam Cavicchio is the current Swan Athletic Drew Banfield Colts coach and has been selected for both his knowledge and to further coach development in the league.

Joining the coaches as part of the new-look off field line up is Ben Johnson who brings substantial experience in not only football, but elite sport – state basketball.

After five weeks in the program and even longer in planning, the new West Coast Eagles State Amateur Colts coaching panel will be looking to get their campaign off to a positive start against the CBH Country Colts before taking on the State 16’s on June 4th as a curtain raiser to the West Coast Eagles v Gold Coast Suns match at Patersons Stadium.

Bounce down for the West Coast Eagles State Amateur Colts and CBH Country Colts game is at 5:25pm and will be followed immediately after by the West Coast Eagles State Amateur U/23 and AMCAP/New Holland WACFL match at 7:15pm.
