Knights appoint NRL Head Coach

The nib Newcastle Knights Board of Directors has this evening endorsed the recommendation of their five-delegate subcommittee, appointing Justin Holbrook as Head Coach for the next three seasons.

Holbrook, a Newcastle Knights Old Boy (127), brings over 20 years of coaching experience in his return to the Club, including 169 NRL and Super League matches as Head Coach.

Following a thorough selection process, Justin was unanimously chosen as the best candidate to lead the Club into a new era.

We congratulate Justin on his appointment and look forward to his commencement as Knights Head Coach once his current commitments are fulfilled.

Further information and commentary will be provided in the coming days.
