WA Raiders campaign offficially underway.

Gridiron West is pleased to announce the selection of:

  • Justin “JR” Rogers as Head Coach, and
  • Joanna “Jo” Rogers as Team Manager

for the 2012 WA Raiders Senior Team. Both JR and Jo are current members of the Perth Broncos, have been involved with Junior and Senior State teams previously and have been actively involved in the development of GW for many years.

As explained in the Expression of Interest notice sent out in early January, the Raiders will be competing in the first home and away national comp undertaken by Gridiron Australia. This year’s event will be the starting point for future national competitions as well as the opportunity to highlight GW to the rest of the GA community.

We are very excited about the selection of these two individuals and believe they have the skills to deliver our first National Championship since 2001. However this will require the complete support of all our member clubs and the GW community to ensure their success and that of the Raiders during the 2012 campaign.

Finally, we would like to ask that all members of the GW community not only extend their congratulations to both JR and Jo, but also their support when and where available to help establish what we believe is the beginning of a new era in Gridiron West and Gridiron Australia.

If you're interested in putting your hand up to play, head on over to this form and fill in the details.
