Coach Azzopardi Taking on a New Role

Howick Hornets Senior Coach Andrew Azzopardi has confirmed his role as assistant coach in the NZAFL Premiership competition. Andrew will be assistant coach for the Central Giants in the 2018 competition which is played over the off season of the AAFL League. 

The NZAFL Premiership takes the AFL talent from around the country and drafts players into one of four teams. Andrew hopes to help the struggling Central Giants into finals contention in the 2018 competition. 

This appointment will be a huge benefit to the competition as Andrew has a wealth of knowledge from 25 years of playing football as well as coaching at senior levels. Andrew hopes to snap up the handful of Hornets players in the draft to push their skills to the next level.

This is a positive reflection of the club for how well the team has performed this year and they are now making waves in the AFL leagues. 

Up the Hornets!
