“Im excited for the challenge and delighted to have an opportunity at a club committed to the female game” says Bennett.

AUSC Operations Manager Marcus DeLuca said, “with experience running coach education courses and previously heading the girls program at Pembroke College, we see Matt as the perfect development coach to help our young reserves take the next step”.
