Albert Park Football Club are delighted to nominate Tim More as this week’s trainer of the week. At the weekend, a player from South Mornington broke his leg during the game, and an ambulance was required. Tim came to the aid of this player, and supported the player with his complete attention for at least 40 minutes, while waiting for this ambulance to arrive. Tim is a personal trainer, and sports professional in his day job, and so his expertise is much valued by all at Albert Park for this incident to help another club as well as his care and attention to detail on all player injuries at our club.

Our trainer of the week, in fact our trainer of the year is Ian Wheeler (Lookalike to actor Harvey Kietel) Ian is one of the clubs true characters, and with his rugged Hollywood looks (this picture does him no justice), each week he sets a few player’s mums hearts a flutter! On a serious note: Ian is a former best clubman, multiple VAFA representative trainer and has been the St Bernard’s head trainer for the last 5years co-ordinating a team of 15 training staff across seven teams. Some years ago, Ian along with David Micallef & Tate Pearson from club sponsor Physio Health, instigated Monday night injury assessment and early rehab sessions for all senior players, ensuring players at St Bernard’s receive the very best care and treatment. Ian works tirelessly at the club and his Saturday routine runs from 9am preparations to the last injured player is sorted out around 6pm. It’s people like Ian that make St Bernard’s tick. We feel he is a very worthy candidate for trainer of the week.
