Pennant Hills Demons Seeking Coaches – Season 2022
The Pennant Hills Australian Football Club Inc, is one of Sydney’s premier AFL clubs, and has been a member of the Sydney AFL community for over 45 years. The Demons play in the blue and red strip of the Melbourne Demons.
As one of the largest clubs in the Sydney AFL with 11 teams (5 Men’s Senior divisions, 4 Women’s teams, 1 team in Under 19’s and a team in the Masters Division), Pennant Hills Demons are focused on ensuring we provide a welcoming club for players of all standards.
The Pennant Hills Football Club prides itself on not only being a great catalyst for the development of talented footballers but also for the development of great young men and women. Our club culture is the envy of many clubs and is based on our ethos of Club, Team, Self. The Demon’s culture is built on the qualities of friendship, loyalty and community and it is these three ideals that make the Demon’s such a successful on and off-field force.
The Pennant Hills Demons has been one of the most successful clubs in the Sydney AFL winning multiple flags in many different grades and divisions. Pennant Hills has a reputation for producing exceptionally talented young players that reach AFL level. Recent successes being Kieran Briggs and James Peatling (Giants), Braeden Campbell and Marc Sheather (Swans) with many others now playing in the VFL.
Penno Home Ground is Mike Kenny Oval (Greenway Park), situated in the Hornsby Shire Council, in close proximity to surrounding suburbs including, Pennant Hills, Cherrybrook, West Pennant Hills, Dural, Galston, Hornsby, Beecroft and Epping. Mike Kenny Oval (Greenway Park) has two playing fields and we boast one of the best club houses in Australia, opened recently in 2021. Training is two nights a week with Home and Away games of a Saturday.
The continued growth of the football club can be attributed to both our longstanding local ties with our Sydney JAFL affiliates (Pennant Hills Demons, Westbrook Bulldogs, Hornsby Eagles, North-Ryde Dockers), as well as our continued influx of players from outside our feeder zone that have heard about our great club.
