Expect the whole dang block between Queen Street and Pitt Street to transform into the party of your dreams, with our main stage landing right near the Rainbow crossing. As if that wasn't enough to get you scrambling for tickets, the rest of the line-up is scorching hotter than a Holden bonnet in late summer.

The club's social media page stated: 'Jamie brings outstanding experience and leadership, and we're confident he's the right person to lead us into an exciting new era. 'He'll be joining Paul Willetts, who comes on board as first team coach, bringing further expertise and energy to the management team. Additional support staff will also be linking up as we continue to drive the club forward. 'This appointment is a key part of our long-term vision and reflects our commitment to building a strong, sustainable future. With infrastructure improvements already underway and a clear focus on growth, we're laying the foundations for lasting success. 'We also want to express our heartfelt thanks to Mark Hibbard, whose leadership guided us to promotion into the Hellenic Premier Division. That unforgettable play-off win over Worcester Raiders will always be a proud moment in our club history.' Pegasus recently held their end of season presentation at a packed Lynchpin Lounge at the KGD Stadium. The first team men and women's player of the year were Jordan Williamson and Ellie Davies respectively. Last season Hereford Pegasus finished 14th in the Hellenic Premier with 10 wins from their 38 league matches. Pegasus finished five points behind city rivals Westfields and the pair are set to battle again this season in the same division.
