FAVOURITE SON RETURNS TO UNIVERSITY
Former Kookaburra and recent Hockeyroos Head Coach, Frank Murray, has been appointed by the UWA Hockey Club as the 2012 Men’s AHG League coach.
Murray who is a Life Member of University, retired on a high as Hockeyroos coach following the teams gold medal win at the 2010 Commonwealth Games ending 6 years in charge and having brought many successes to both the women’s and men's programs.
Murrays return to coach University first grade is a great surprise to the hockey community but nothing new at the club with him having previously coached the students on 7 previous occasions in 1974-1978, 1980 and 2003.
“Being invited back into coaching by University in 2003 reignited my enthusiasm for the game which led to my acceptance to coach the Hockeyroos in 2004. 2011 was a year off to ponder the future and what I enjoyed doing the most. Hockey has been one great love in my life and I decided that I wanted to stay involved and give back what I could at club level”
“There’s a new generation of players at University following the clubs remarkable success over the last 10 years that has delivered 4 premierships and I’d like to help develop the talent and see the club through its current transition” Murray said.
One achievement to elude Murray in his coaching career is a first grade premiership having finished second on a frustrating 4 occasions.
Players wanting to discuss their prospects with University this year can call Frank on 0417973876.
