Budgewoi Football Club is celebrating after being rewarded with a surprise early promotion to the Central Coast Men’s Premier League for the 2024 season.
The announcement came moments after the full time whistle at their 14th game of the regular season.
The Men’s Premier League is the most prized Central Coast Men’s division and after a nine year hiatus Budgewoi Football Club will return in 2024 on the back of an outstanding 2023 regular season campaign.
Football President and Wyong Leagues Group Director Anthony Newell said the energy around the team when it the announcement was made was “electrifying”.
“It has been a long road back to the Men’s Premier League but what these boys have achieved is something incredible and we are pumped for what’s to come,” he said.
Newell said to be promoted in any division is a great achievement but to do it in 14 games with 13 wins, one draw and four weeks left of the regular season is a tremendous feat and testament to the dedication of the individuals and the comradery of the team.
Wyong Leagues Group CEO Ben Coghlan said it was great to see Budgewoi Football Club achieve its long-term goal with “class and dominance”.
The team is now preparing for the remainder of the season and setting its eyes on winning the Grand Final in September at Pluim Park to cap off a historical season.
