Former Sharks legend Brett Kimmorley and Kiwi Silver Ferns representative Kiana Takairangi will be members of the coaching staff for the upcoming Sharks Skills Development Program (SDP), which is now accepting enrolments for 2021.
Entering its sixth year, the program will be hosted at Pointsbet Stadium in a move which allows participants to experience the same training environment and facilities as the Sharks NRL squad.
Kimmorley and Takairangi, who will again turn out for the Sharks Harvey Norman’s Women’s team in 2021, will work alongside an array of coaches from the Sharks Academy program as fulltime SDP coaches, giving participants the opportunity to access quality coaching throughout the course of the program.
The SDP has been designed by Cronulla Sharks Academy and Talent Identification Manager Glenn Brailey, who currently takes responsibility for the entire Sharks Junior Reps Program and has been directly involved with the coaching of the Harold Matthews Cup, Winter Academy and Development squads.
