A true club legend, Bruce’s connection with the Devils spans decades as a player, premiership player, premiership coach, volunteer and mentor. His contribution to the club is nothing short of remarkable, having played a club-record 362 senior games for Mt Lofty, later surpassing 367 senior appearances, while also claiming the 1996 A Grade Best & Fairest, A Grade Premierships in 2006 and 2007, along with additional B Grade and C Grade premiership success. 🏆
Bruce’s coaching résumé is equally impressive. He guided the Mt Lofty Devils A Grade to the 2014 Hills Football League Premiership, earning recognition as the SANFL Senior Country Coach of the Year. He has also been heavily involved in the growth of women’s football, coaching the Mt Lofty Women’s team in 2019 before being appointed Senior Coach of the Sturt Football Club SANFLW program. Bruce later continued his coaching journey at West Adelaide Football Club in the SANFLW competition, building a reputation as a passionate leader and developer of female football talent. ⚡
His extensive experience across both men’s and women’s football, combined with his passion for developing players, building strong cultures and fostering a genuine love for the game, makes him the ideal person to lead our HFLW program into an exciting new chapter.
Please join us in congratulating Bruce on his appointment. We are excited to see the future of women’s football at Mt Lofty under his leadership and look forward to what promises to be an exciting 2027 season.
❤️🤍 Congratulations Bruce and welcome back to the helm of the Devils! ❤️🤍
