2021 Strength and Conditioning Coach Announcement

We are excited to announce Simone O'Mara as the Kangaroos' Strength and Conditioning Coach for 2021

Simone is a qualified Personal Trainer with over 15 years experience in the fitness industry and is the owner of "Fitness, Health and Wellness Coaching - Simone O’Mara Trainer and Assessor for Fitness."

Simone’s career in fitness started at the age of 18 when she joined the Royal Australian Navy. After completing her service in the RAN Simone worked as a Personal Trainer/Manager for several years, before gaining a position at Tafe NSW teaching fitness.

Growing up in a family with a background in both professional and local rugby league gave Simone the ability and resources to learn the game inside and out. She then took her love and understanding of rugby league and applied that knowledge to her clients' (players) training.

Simone has worked with both male and female rugby league players of all ages and experience levels, and under her training regime, has taken their fitness, strength and conditioning to new heights.

Simone has always aspired to help people reach their fitness and health goals. She began one-on-one and group fitness training early in her career, however, wanted to expand her knowledge and experience.

Simone has designed and developed online programs for sporting groups at all ages and levels. She has also designed, developed and implemented "Fitness, Health and Wellness" programs for schools. Simone is experienced in strength and conditioning, physique transformation, in developing elite athletes, as well as Indigenous programs and for athletes with special needs.

Simone's chosen career has never once felt like a job to her, and she strives to continuously grow and obtain as much knowledge and experience as she can.

Simone is currently working on expanding her School's programs and is returning to university this year to undertake a Masters Degree in Sport and Exercise Science.

Simone's focus in 2021 is to help bring Kangaroos home for the win!
