Randwick Rugby has announced that Gary Ella has been appointed as the club’s new Head Coach and Club Coach.
Coming off a season in which Randwick made the semifinals in all seven grades, with First Grade making the Grand Final and Fourth Grade winning their Premiership, General Manager Chris Heath said he believes Ella will continue the traditions of Randwick Rugby by looking to challenge every player by concentrating on their ball skills along with the confidence to run the ball from anywhere on the field. Heath says the appointment of Gary Ella as Head Coach and Club Coach at Randwick, is exciting for the club going forward. “I believe we have the best man for the job,” said Heath. “The time is right, with the resurgence of tribalism in club Rugby. Crowds are returning to Coogee Oval looking for that exciting brand of running Rugby.” Ella will be assisted by incumbent coach Mark Giacheri, and will be looking to maintain the Galloping Greens long-time philosophy of ‘Running Rugby’.
