Lions announce 2024 leaders

The Seymour Football Netball Club (SFNC) has announced its on-field leaders for the 2024 Goulburn Valley League (GVL) season.


Lachlan Waite and Dylan Scopel will remain as Co-Captains of the Senior side, joined in the leadership group by Jack Murphy, Huw Jones, James Wooster, Nick Dundon, Ben Cooney and Seamus Feery.


The leadership group brings a strong mix of experience and youth, providing different leadership styles to benefit the entirety of the playing group.


Seymour Lions Senior Coach Ben Davey said the group places the young talent of the club in good hands.


“We’re delighted to have a group of incredibly well-respected men leading our club again in 2024,” Mr Davey said.


 “Lachlan Waite stepped up last year and did a great job last year alongside Dylan Scopel and has taken on the extra responsibility as our Under 18s Seniors Coach.


“Dylan hit the 200 game mark of the club, has been a great player over a long period of time and is now a Lions and GVL Life Member.


“We’re incredibly lucky to have two fantastic leaders to support our whole playing group in their on and off-field development.”


James Wooster and Ben Cooney are the new faces in the leadership group for the season ahead.


“Both James and Ben play crucial roles in our backline and have a high level of senior football experience despite their young ages,” Mr Davey said.


“Their elevation gives us not just a great spread in terms of styles and age but also covers all areas of the ground.


“We do have quite a young group so we’ll be looking to keep elevating future leaders of the club in the season ahead.



“Everyone is raring to go for 2024. We can’t wait for next weekend.”
