Welcome to Issue 2 of The Bear Facts,

Great news headlines this edition with the announcement that Dutch International, Kew Jaliens, will be joining the Bears Coaching staff.

I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Kew over the past few months and he and his family will be a wonderful addition to our club. Kew will not only be part of our coaching staff but he will also commence his own coaching academy something which he is very passionate about and we are very proud that the Bears can be a part of it.

February also sees our trials get underway, check out the Bears website for trial dates and get out and support the boys.

C’Mon you Bears!!

Ground work update

The rejuvenation of the main training field is coming along brilliantly. This photo taken before the New Year shows a very healthy coverage and the weather over the past few weeks has seen a real growth spurt. 



The Club would like to acknowledge the assistance of Cessnock City Council's Dollar4Dollar Scheme for enabling such an undertaking. 


We'll continue to update with all the ground works current and new over the next few weeks.



C'mon you Bears!!!

Super news for Bears Youth goalkeeper Jay Sneddon.

Also a talented cricketer, Jay's hard work was rewarded with a call up to the Cardiff Boolaroo 1st grade team to play in a T20 game against Newcastle City played at Number 1 Sports Ground.

Congratulations from all of us at the Bears mate.
