No Off Season for the Jets!
THE Narromine Jets started training last week under their new coaching staff.
Dylan Hill, Mark Kilby, Luke Phillips and Jamie-lee Elwin are focussed on making an impact in all grades in next year’s Group XI competition and have kicked off with some pre-season training Tuesday nights at the Noel Powell Junior Rugby League Ovals.
“Whilst it might be the off season for rugby league, there is no slowing down for the Jets,” according to publicity officer Sally Everett.
“A lot of our players – women and men – have been having a run in the Friday night touch football competition. After three weeks, it is proving to be a great success, with 90 registered players involved. It is a great way of increasing fitness as well as a fun family orientated Friday night,” Sally added.
The Jets are also running a 100 club with the opportunity to win $5000 cash. There are 100 tickets at $100 each and the club is suggesting a syndicate of supporters might pool funds to buy a ticket!
At this stage training will be once a week, with a gradual increase to two nights a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
New coach Dylan Hill is excited by the challenge of coaching the proud Narromine Jets.
“Preseason is an opportunity to get your head and body back in the game and work cohesively as a club, with all teams training together. We’ve got some new faces coming to the club this year, and the Tuesday afternoon gatherings are a great opportunity for us to meet the locals and build those relationships and team work early on.”
President of the Jets, Archie Harding, encourages anyone who is interested in playing for a proactive, dedicated, family orientated club to come along to preseason training and get involved.
