Former PFC Colts Head Coach Scott Moore to Lead AFL Tasmania’s Under 18 Devils Boys Program

Tasmania’s best emerging talent will be in great hands with the arrival of Scott Moore to lead AFL Tasmania’s Under 18 Devils programs.
“Moore joins from Western Australia, bringing a wealth of experience in the Talent Pathways system and a proven track record in developing both players and coaches.

Most recently, he served as Head Coach – Colts with the Perth Football Club, where he was named WAFL Colts Coach of the Year. He has also spent the past six years working with the Western Bulldogs as an AFL recruitment scout.

Highly regarded as one of Western Australia’s leading development coaches, Moore now relocates to Tasmania to lead the boys program.

“I’m thrilled to be joining the Tasmanian talent pathway at such an exciting time for football in the state,” Moore said.

“Player development is a passion, so the ability to help develop players as people and footballers in such an exciting time for the state is a real driver.

“Setting the foundations for players to succeed across the state, whether that be AFL or VFL is such an exciting opportunity to be a part of.”

Head of AFL Tasmania Damian Gill said the appointments strengthen both programs and position them for long term success.

“We’ve secured two impressive, passionate coaches on the rise, each with the potential to make a significant impact on Tasmanian football,” Gill said.

“Scott has an outstanding reputation for developing young players to an elite standard in the WAFL pathway system. He’s been part of great organisations and has had his fingerprints on strong development programs. His ability to build relationships and establish a high performing, enjoyable learning environment stood out immediately, as did his enthusiasm for the opportunity ahead.

“At a critical juncture for our talent programs and our state, it’s fantastic to have both coaches on board.”

Moore will commence on the 17th of November and will be based at AFL Tasmania’s Hobart office.”
