The Sydney Roosters have announced their inaugural women’s team for the 2020 Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership who will proudly play under the Central Coast Roosters banner.
The team will be based at the Club’s new high performance facility at Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College, The Entrance Campus, which opened at the end of February.
Sydney Roosters Group CEO, Joe Kelly, was pleased to welcome the new team into the Club, saying: “The announcement of the Central Coast Roosters Women’s team further strengthens the pathways of the Sydney Roosters’ Women’s Program, with teams already in the Tarsha Gale and NRL Holden Women’s Premiership.”
To coincide with the launch of the team, the Sydney Roosters are pleased to have secured Central Real as a major partner of the program during 2020.
“Central Real are specialist property developers on the Central Coast and we are delighted to welcome them as the major partner for the inaugural year of the Central Coast Roosters Women’s Premiership team, and we look forward to sharing a successful season together,” said Kelly.
Central Real CEO, Richard Ellis, said it was a fantastic opportunity to support a Women’s Premiership team who train locally on the Coast, saying: “We are thrilled to be able to sponsor this team with local Central Coast talent like Isabelle Kelly and Jayme Fressard.
“We are looking forward to supporting them throughout the season ahead.”
The Central Coast Roosters will begin their 2020 campaign on March 14 when they take on Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks at Points Bet Stadium.
The Central Coast Roosters Women’s Premiership team will be co-coached by Kylie Hilder and John Strange.
