STUART KELLY APPOINTED HALSWELL’S FOOTBALL DEVELOPMENT MANAGER


In what was probably the worst kept secret in Canterbury football, Halswell United are pleased to welcome Stuart Kelly to the club as our Football Development Manager.

Stuart’s playing pedigree is well known having spent time playing for the Canterbury United Dragons, as well as Auckland City and numerous professional clubs overseas including Glasgow Rangers and South Melbourne but it is his coaching and leadership qualities that will be to the fore in his new role.

"We couldn't have picked a better person to be our FDM than Stuart", said Club President, Kevin Clarke. " The kids are all buzzing already with the rumour that he was even thinking of joining Halswell and now that he has signed, they'll be over the moon.”“Stuart has immense football credibility, mana, call it what you will, and he's another example of how the club executive are working hard toward securing a better future for the club." "Watch this space!!"

Stuart will not only be joining us as our Football Development Manager, but will be registered as a player to add weight to our promotion campaign if required by Premier men's coach Robbie Barroclough.

We hope you will all make him feel right at home with us here at Halswell United.
