2025 HFL U14 BOYS COACHES | OSCAR, DAN & HUDSON
The Mt Lofty Football Club is excited to announce Oscar Kerr, Dan Peake and Hudson Spencer as our U14 Boys Coaches for the 2025 season.
In doing so, we would like to thank Brad Burch as the outgoing U14 coach for all of his time and dedication over the last three seasons in this role. He has certainly brought his own flare to the team. We are excited to keep Brad’s expertise within the club for other roles in 2025.
2025 will be an exciting year for our young Devils, as three of our passionate and talented young footballers advance to the next level of the coaching careers.
Having been involved in Assistant Coaching, mentoring and even constant figures at Auskick for a number of years, Oscar, Dan and Hudson are very excited to further develop this group of footballers.
The trio have developed their philosophy and focus for the upcoming season:
Positive outlook:
Have a positive outlook on and off the field, this includes not dropping your heads during games as well as positive attitude towards training.
Teamwork:
This starts with treating all of your team mates like family and getting around each other after every good performance/thing
Player development/setting and achieving personal goals:
The goal is to have every player achieve at least 1 of their personal goals by the end of the year.
We look forward to seeing the impact of the boys leadership in the 2025 season 💪
Give ’em Hell Devs 🔥
