Introducing the Western Sydney Pioneers
Introducing the Western Sydney Pioneers Hi all,

I hope everyone is going well.

I am writing to introduce myself and to provide you some information regarding the new AFL NSW/ACT TPP Zone, the Western Sydney Pioneers.

It is an exciting time for AFL in the area and I look forward to working with you to identify and help "pioneer" an effective pathway for players to reach their potential.

For your information, please see below for timelines and coaches of all age groups.

I endeavour to touch base over the next few weeks to introduce myself and look forward to working with you in the future.

In the meantime, please feel free to contact me.

Kind regards,
Nathan
