Carelli and Bickerton to remain with Burra in 2024


Published on Tuesday, September 26, 2023

St Mary’s Football Netball Club has confirmed the re-appointments of Fabian Carelli as senior men’s coach and Troy Bickerton as senior women’s coach for season 2024.

Next year will be Carelli’s seventh season as senior men’s coach of the club following his arrival in 2018.

He has since taken the Burra to premiership success in Division 3 during the 2018 campaign and last year, he helped lead his side to their best ever finish in Division 2, taking them all the way to a preliminary final.

Meanwhile Bickerton will look for even more success with the St Mary’s women’s side, after taking them to their first piece of silverware in the NFNL women’s competition last month, as the Burra won the Division 2 flag.

This will be the premiership coach’s fourth season as women’s coach at the club.
