2013 Season is underway

Article updated

And with the closure of the AGM for the year it is official. Season 2013 for the Croydon Rangers is well and truly underway.  Season 2012 left a lot of un- answered questions. A team with a core group of players,  depleted by injuries almost made it to the play offs. Whilst you could pick over the negatives, the positives that were carried away from the last game and victory against the eventual Vic Bowl winners was simple, The Croydon Rangers aren’t just a team that can go toe to toe with the best, they can be and beat the best.

With a large core of the immediate player group beginning an extensive pre-season starting in November, the one thing that has carried through is the desire to win.  With a fresh outlook and adoption of new approach to the pre season,  both new recruits and seasoned veterans beginning to gel together the direction the club is taking is clear.

Welcome to 2013; The Year of the Ranger.

Coaching Staff:

Head Coach: Mark Fairweather.

Offensive Co-ordinator: Richard Garraway.

Assistant Co-ordinator: Jason Marriott.

Assistant Co-ordinator:  Stephen Gale.

Committee:

President: Sam Weller

Vice President: Michael Krischunas

Treasurer: Richard Garraway

Secretary: Taran Marston
