The first two nominees for the prestigious  John Holroyd Award have been announced. The 1st nominee is Joe Tractor Binns from the Open Age team and the 2nd nominee  is Becky Harrison Thresh from the Under 15s team.

NEW COACHING STAFF FOR THE OPEN AGE
09.11.23

We are delighted to announce the coaching staff for the 2024 season.

Firstly, in an exciting and pioneering partnership, Tom Megretton and John Nunns will share first team head coach responsibilities. Stanley Rangers stalwart John Nunns brings a wealth of interpersonal and people leadership skills to the coaching staff. He's an unwavering loyalty to Stanley and will be phoenomenal for us moving forward. In partnership with John, Tom excelled in his role as assistant last year and has continued to demonstrate an ability to nurture performance and to build a club-wide culture that we're proud of. The two are the absolute right people to take us into the YML premier in 2024.

Working alongside Tom and John will be last year's Under 16s coach Chris Molyneux, who joins the Open Age coaching team as an assistant coach. Chris brings a wealth of rugby league experience and will be super important for youth development. The success of last year U16s is a large part down to Chris' understanding of the game, and his ability to get the best out of people.

And completing the line-up, last year's assistant John McDermott will take up the role of Head of Reserves team. John is a proven coach, and his understanding of the amateur game is outstanding. He's absolutely the right person to create the important environment for the Reserves Team so everybody involved can benefit.

These four have already started the work required to make sure 2024 will be another outstanding year as we prepare for the challenge of the YML Premier Division.
