FundAVA Raffle

Gisborne Soccer Club is immensely proud of our player Ava Ryan who has been selected to represent Victoria in the u12 girls School Sport Australian Championships in Perth this October. This is an amazing testament to her training and dedication to personal development …. it also comes with a significant financial expense of $5000! As a community, we would like to contribute to the expenses and support Ava and the Ryan family to have an amazing experience in Perth whilst cheering on Victoria.

100% of proceeds from this raffle up to $4000 will be donated to the Ryan family as a contribution to the costs of travelling to the School Sport Australian Championships in Western Australia. Any further proceeds will be donated to Gisborne Soccer Club and used to continue the development of our players to such a high standard.

Coaches Mentor

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Andrew Krywula as Coaches Mentor for Season 2024.

Andrew brings 15 years playing & 15 years coaching experience.

He will be supporting our coaches from U8s right through to the Senior program.

2024 sees the biggest investment the club has made in coaching across the board. For the first time our Senior Men have 4 coaches for the State League program. We have also appointed Alex Phung & Cameron Emery as Junior Boys coaches as we look for a more structured pathway between the Junior & Senior programs.

Meanwhile in the Junior Girls program Carl Valeri & Vince Ryan continue in their roles as our girls continue to develop ready for the return of the Senior Womens program.

Supporting our coaches is a vital and another way to ensure we are getting the most value for our players to allow them to be the best versions of themselves.

Keep an eye out for Andrew at training!

2024 Womens Team

Gisborne Soccer Club regrets to inform that due to the low number of interested players we are unable to field a Womens team in 2024.

We remain committed to fostering the growth of female football within our club, we are pleased to have strong number in our Junior program which acts as a pathway to the return of Senior football, to which we anticipate will be in 2025.

Gisborne SC proudly continues to facilitate the strong “Gisborne Tillies” program, enabling Women who wish to stay engaged with playing the game but not at a competition football level.

Cameron Emery, who was appointed our Womens coach for Season 2024, will remain at the club, he moves to the vacant Junior Boys U15’s role (our Junior Girls already have their coaches appointed) and will take the reins of the Womens team upon its return in 2025.

Waitlist Closed

Gisborne Soccer Club has experienced strong growth once again in 2024. We are so excited to have close to 400 boys and girls from u8s to u18s playing this year and on their pathway into our successful Seniors Program. In addition to that, we run a hugely popular MiniRoos KickOff non-competitive program for 4-7 year olds, and in 2024 are running our inaugural Intra Club Program for 7-9 year olds.

All competition teams are now complete and we are unable to accept any more players. Expressions of interest for the 2025 season will open later this year. Please follow our social media pages on Facebook and Instagram to keep informed of when that opens, likely to be between September and November.
