NTFA Announce 2025 Representative Coaches

NTFA Announces Coaches for the big intrastate clashes

The Northern Tasmanian Football Association is pleased to announce the appointment of coaches for its representative teams ahead of the upcoming Premier League and Community League representative matches.

These intrastate games throughout the season will answer the question about which region starts this new era in Tasmanian football as the leading association in the State.

With a number of games scheduled throughout May, June & July, this is an opportunity for the NTFA’s star players to showcase their skills against the best that the SFL & NWFL have to offer.

The NTFA Premier League Representative Side will feature both a men’s and women’s team and will face off against both the SFL & NWFL.

The Community Representative Game will feature the top talent across the Division 1 & 2 competitions and will face off against the SFL at Campbell Town Recreation Ground with both men & women playing on the same day.

Adrian Smith last year’s TSL Premiership winning coach has been appointed as the Premier League Men Coach bringing a wealth of experience and is currently the senior coach of North Launceston.

Mikayla Binns has been appointed as the co-coach of Premier League Women Coach alongside Ash Smith who led the Women's team last year.

Lochie Dornauf has been appointed as the Division 1/2 Men Coach and currently serves as the coach of Evandale Senior Men and has previously coached the NTFA rep side.

Adrian Collins has been appointed as the Division 1 Women Coach and is currently the Senior Men’s Coach at Meander Valley, Adrian has also been involved with the Women’s rep side in the past.

We look forward to these coaches getting the best out of Northern Tasmania’s best players on game day as we look to beat our rivals in the SFL & NWFL.
