Right man for the job

THE Noosa and Gympie Rugby League clubs have a new premier league coach for the 2015 season.
Anthony Zipf was chosen by a panel, as the right man for the job, who can take the clubs to new heights in the coming season and beyond.
Anthony comes to the combined clubs with a vision of growing last year’s core group of players as well as developing new youth players coming up through the ranks.
The new coach comes with experience, having played in the Brisbane Broncos program for three years, the North’s Devils for two years and three A-Grade premierships with the Noosa Pirates.
Noosa and Gympie have once again joined forces in the newly named Premier League in 2015 as a pathway to one day stand alone as their own respective clubs.
The team next year will have a uniformed name and will play in a jersey that represents both clubs colours and logos.
Part of the planning for the pathway to stand alone has begun with both clubs to field their own Division 2 sides next season under the new competition structure of the Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League. Gympie will field a side in the SCGRL U18’s competition with Noosa entering the new U17/18 SCJRL Youth Cup. The Division 2 sides, Gympie U18s and Noosa’s Youth Cup side will play in their respective club’s colour.
