Curley Commits for 2024Thursday, August 3, 2023 - 5:45 PM

The South Fremantle Football Club is pleased to announce the one-year extension of Todd Curley’s coaching contract, securing the long-term coach until the end of the 2024 season.

Curley will enter his tenth season in charge at the Kennel, and in doing so, becomes South’s longest-serving coach in history, surpassing Hall of Fame Legend Clive Lewington. 

South Fremantle Head of Football Charlie Burke said the club was delighted to extend Curley’s contract as South looks to respond from 2023 and quickly rise back up the WAFL ladder. 

“It is terrific to be able to secure Todd’s tenure for a further season, off the back of a challenging year for our football club” Burke said.

“His commitment and drive, coupled with his ability to develop and support young players in their early WAFL journeys, are major assets and requirements for a modern-day coach.

“Todd is the right person to see us back in finals contention in season 2024.". 

Curley looks forward to the future ahead and remains as motivated for success as in any other time in his esteemed coaching career. 

“I’m incredibly honoured to continue coaching the South Fremantle Football Club”, Curley said.

“The relationships that exist across our whole program and broader club reflects a genuine alignment across all areas of the club.

“We are determined to bounce back strongly on field in 2024, it is a challenge that myself, the coaching staff and all our players are ready for.

“I wish to thank my loving and supportive wife Paula, and children Thalia and Aiden, for their encouragement in allowing me to pursue a passion and role that I love."
