Brad Hollow will coach Epping for the rest of the Northern Football League division 2 season after co-coaches Glen Lehner and Aaron Newport made the decision to stand down.

The Pingers announced on social media on Tuesday night that the pair had decided to step down after a year and half coaching the side.

“We wish to advise that our co-coaches, Glen Lehner and Aaron Newport, have made the decision to resign as our senior coaches of our club,” the post said.

“We would like to thank them both for their hard work and dedication both on and off the field.

“During their time at the club they have built great relationships not only with the playing group but the club as a whole. We wish them all the very best in their future endeavours.

“Brad Hollow will take on the caretaker role for the remainder of the 2023, We are confident that the boys are in great hands.”

The Pingers sit ninth this season with one win from eight matches, after winning just two matches last year.

This week the Pingers face St Marys this Saturday at Epping Recreation Reserve.
