Tigers, Chapman part ways

Kyneton is on the hunt for a new coach for next year’s Bendigo Football League season.

The club released a statement from president Hayden Evans on Wednesday morning saying it and coach Paul Chapman had stepped down immediately.

“The Kyneton Football Netball (KFNC) and Paul Chapman have made a mutual decision that he will step down as senior coach, effective immediately,” Evans said.

“The timing of this decision is because Paul has increased work and family commitments, and KFNC needs to commence planning for the 2024 season.

“This was a difficult decision, handled respectfully and was made amicably.

“The KFNC is extremely thankful to Chappy for his contribution over his three years. He refreshed the KFNC with his professionalism and set high standards.”

The Tigers sit in seventh spot after 12 rounds, 10 points outside the top five.

The Tigers this Saturday face Maryborough on the road.
