Expressions of interest open ahead of 2026 season

The Cowra Magpies Rugby League Club has opened expressions of interest for coaching and other key positions, inviting applications from individuals who can bring passion, leadership, and alignment with the club’s culture.

With a clear vision of building on recent progress, the Magpies are committed to fostering success both on and off the field while maintaining their reputation as a supportive, community-driven club.

Club President Bruce Wallace confirmed that the search is still in its early stages, with the committee focused on finding people who will fit seamlessly into the Magpies’ culture.

“We’re just looking for someone that fits into our culture, that we’re trying to head towards, and someone that fits in around the place and is well-liked,” Wallace said.

“It’s still very early days, we’re just doing the normal process that every club does of advertising for coaches.”

“Every position, from my spot to anyone on the committee, is all open.”

“It’s just a standard procedure to advertise for coaches for the all three grades, which is what we’ve got to do,” he said.

Wallace explained that the process is transparent and routine, ensuring that all roles are filled through fair consideration.

While the first task is recruiting coaches for all three grades, the Magpies’ ambitions extend well beyond the sideline.

“Our main goal is to be successful on and off the field,” Wallace said.

“We’re heading in the right direction off the field.”

“We’ve certainly come a long way in the last two or three years as a committee and as a club in general, and that’s always been our goal,” he said.

On the football front, the club’s intentions remain as determined as ever.

“We always want to be successful, win games, and feature at the end of the year,” Wallace said.

“That’s really our goal.”

For prospective coaches and committee members, the Magpies pride themselves on being a tight-knit, supportive group.

Wallace noted that this spirit of mutual support is one of the club’s defining strengths, helping players, coaches, and volunteers thrive together as part of the Magpies family.

Expressions of interest are open until September 15th, 2025.

Wallace also said that while this is the closing date, the club is open to extending the timeline if needed.

“It’s the 15th of September, so it’s all open until then, and then if we need to, we can extend it,” Wallace said.

“Hopefully we’ll have it all done and dusted by then, and have our AGM done so our committee will be elected and we’ll go from there.”

He also extended an open invitation to anyone considering a coaching role.

“Expressions of interest are open, and we’d ask anybody that’s interested to be part of this club and would like to take on any coaching positions, we’d encourage anyone to apply,” Wallace said.

“Everybody will be considered on their own merit.”

Expressions of interest remain open until September 15, 2025, with all roles considered through standard procedures.
