Following two eventful seasons with the Wyong Roos as Head of Rugby League, Craig Sandercock has been lured back to coaching with the NRL at the Wests Tigers next season.
Sandercock will be taking control of the NRLW side at the Tigers.
CEO Ben Coghlan said Sandercock’s impact on the Roos’ rugby league program had been immense.
“During his time with the club, he brought in a new era of professionalism by developing new structures, procedures and systems,” he said.
“The most positive aspect of his tenure was evidenced by this year’s strong senior teams showing in finals.
“With six teams qualifying for the semi-finals for the first time since the 1970s, two of which went on to win their respective titles, it is a fair reflection of the progress that has been experienced over this time.
“Whilst we are naturally disappointed that Craig is moving on, we understand that when presented with the opportunity to compete in the best competition in the world, it is quite understandable.
“He will leave us with our highest regard and best wishes.
“Craig has been a consummate professional and the improvements to our rugby league program over the past two seasons have been nothing short of phenomenal.
“Thanks to his influence the Roos will be reaping the benefits of his time with us for years to come.”
Sandercock said he had a tremendous time with the Roos and sincerely thanked the Wyong Leagues Group Board and Management for the great support they had shown him.
“Whilst I am naturally very excited about the new challenges ahead, I feel privileged to have had the opportunity at the Roos to play a part in revitalising such an iconic rugby league brand,” he said.
