Pritchard moves on from Forestville

The Forestville Eagles have announced that women's NBL1 head coach Simon Pritchard has informed the club that a change in lifestyle will prevent him from coaching during the 2022 NBL1 season. 

Pritchard and his wife, Fiona, have purchased a property on the Sunshine Coast and as a result, they will spend large chunks of the Adelaide winter in sunny Queensland. 

However, the Forestville Eagles will not be losing Simon permanently from the club.

The club's management and Pritchard are currently working on the creation of an Elite Eagles Academy in the near future, which will further develop the Eagles' boys and girls from U14s and above outside of normal club team training. 

The Eagles have thanked Simon for his significant contribution to the club's NBL1 women's program.
