Umina Mariners plan time off

Umina resident and Mariners player Andre Gumprecht will be coaching The Entrance Premier League side over the next week, as well as running his SoccerPro coaching clinics.

Another Umina-resident Mariners player, Jamie McMaster, will continue to train in the off season in attempt to secure a long-term deal with the Mariners.

"Each member of our squad is full time," said Mariners media officer Mr Benjamin Coonan.

"As such, they have four weeks of annual leave, then they return to work.

"At the moment, the players are scheduled to keep working up until March 31 then they will have April 1 to May 1 off."
