Laurimar Sporting Club has confirmed the re-appointment of Jimmy Atkins as senior coach for the 2024 season.

Atkins joined the club ahead of the 2021 campaign, following a stint as an assistant coach at Montmorency as well as a successful playing career which saw him make over 200 senior appearances and play in two Division 2 premierships.

In 2023, Atkins has Laurimar sitting in second position with a 12-3 record approaching the final round of the home and away season.

A club statement said:

We are excited to announce the re-appointment of Jimmy at the Laurimar Football Club.

We are looking forward to building on a strong partnership.
