Nick Hegarty - 'Nick has the knack for coaching'

Coaching in Clubland

Nick Hegarty had a decorated youth career where he played with Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday among other clubs, before eventually making over 100 appearances for Grimsby Town as a feisty midfielder in the lower rungs of the English Football league. Nick also featured for St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership before a nasty injury cut his time there short.

Nick emigrated to Australia in 2012 and made an immediate impact with Hume City, making 172 appearances and scoring 52 goals. He won two Football Federation Victoria Gold Medal awards in 2012 and 2016, with the Gold Medal being given to the best player of the NPL Victoria, so it’s a fair accomplishment!

Nick took on the role of interim coach of Hume City in 2017 whilst still playing, before hanging up the boots to focus on his coaching role, and has recently led the club in the FFA Cup, which is a fair effort!
