U21 Coach Appointed

Langwarrin Soccer Club is pleased to announce the appointment for Mladen Kustura as the U21 coach for season 2012. Mladen was a senior player for a number of years at Langwarrin until knee injuries finally and prematurely ended his football career. Mladen was impressive in his interview and showed that his aspirations were very much in line with Langwarrin.

We are looking forward to seeing Mladen work with the talented youngsters and believe that his communication skills, significant football experience and ambition will serve him well in the process. Mladen will be working closely with senior coach, Gus MacLeod, to ensure that U21 players are developed as quickly as possible for senior football.

Senior Pre-Season Training for 2012 Season

Langwarrin Soccer Club and Gus MacLeod have announced that the Senior and U21 teams will commence training on Tuesday the 29th of November starting at 7pm at the clubrooms.

All of last seasons players and new players are welcome to attend, please bring your soccer boots and running shoes. Any issues or questions please call Gus on 0402122077.

Please note in the update below that Langwarrin will operate the reserve team in 2012 as an U21 side.

Preparation For 2012 Has Commenced

The new committee for 2012 has started preparation for the 2012 season. I have met with the committee twice in the past couple of weeks and we are well on the way to getting things in order for 2012.

My Committee Comprises Of

  • Lee Atkinson – Vice President
  • Mick Hardy – Treasurer
  • Joan Wallace – Secretary

General Committee

  • Cal Smith
  • Nick Phillips
  • Jason Corrigan
  • Tanya Wallace
  • Lee Petrucci
  • Brian Skelly Snr
  • Gail Ak
  • Kevin Iles

I believe that with these people on the committee we are well placed to repeat the successes of last years committee.

The first thing that we did as a committee was to appoint our senior coach. This season will again see Gus MacLeod at the helm. We are very happy to have Gus on board again. Gus shares the same disappointment and passion to return to the 1st division that the committee has.

It is our intention to return straight back to State League Division 1. We are not blind to the immense challenge that this poses but we are confident that we have the desire and talent to achieve it. I expect to see the majority of our team return in 2012.

As I sat with the players in the change room after that bitterly disappointing playoff defeat I believe that all of them committed to return to the club in 2012.

We have a group of talented young players that have the potential to be Langwarrin greats if they stay for the long haul.

Our U21s (we will operate as an U21 side in 2012) require a coach. We are seeking expressions of interest from any qualified and or experienced coaches that would like to take on the task of developing our up and coming talent.

Our social framework will change next year as we look to adjust our income management. We will be attempting to run social events at least on a monthly basis. I call to all our members and supporters and their friends to get behind these events.

2012 will be an interesting year for the seniors as we have a few local derbys, this is one of the few positives in being relegated to Division 2.

I will look to provide regular information updates on this web site covering all aspects of the club playing group.

Regards
John Heskins
President
