NEWS: 2015 TAC Cup Squad Announced

The Rebels Administration and Coaching staff has been very pleased with the quality of the work produced by the regions most talented and promising footballers over the past 5 months during the Rebels TAC Cup Squad Pre Season.

Initially over 150 players across the Ballarat, Wimmera, South West, Warrnambool and our Talent Region Hampden took up the invitation to be a part of our pre season and all worked extremely hard 2-3 nights per week to improve their skills and fitness levels to a level which all could be proud of under the watchful eye of the Rebels Head Coach, David Loader and his experienced coaching and Development staff.


The selection process for Rebels TAC Cup Playing Squad is always a very difficult task and one which all Rebels staff members take very seriously. The hardest job for any coach or administrator is to tell a player that unfortunately they have missed out on making a particular team or squad. This year was even a more difficult task as we had many players similar in ability and size across the region.


Each player is also considered to be one of the best or most promising within their league or club but at this level they need to take the next step with their skills, fitness, commitment and attitude.

Many players find their feet at a higher level and some struggle with the intensity and pace of the game. The players that do settle in and are able step up their intensity are the one’s which excel in the Talented Player Pathway Programs.

This process takes over the entire preseason with all players starting on a level playing field with no players getting easy ride even players that played Rebels in 2014 as a 17yrs old are not an automatic selections.

No doubt that the players hours of hard work will pay off for each of them during the 2014 season whether they are playing TAC Cup football with the Rebels or playing football back at their local club or town.

Congratulations to the following players that have been successful in gaining selection into the initial 2015 Rebels TAC Cup Playing Squad. Like any squad’s, Players that are excelling outside this squad in local league football have the opportunity to be included as well as the players that have already been selected that don’t meet expectations may be released back to local football.
