The Sydney Roosters have today announced that recently-retired champion halfback Cooper Cronk will join the Club’s coaching staff in 2020.

The two-time Roosters Premiership-winning halfback will assume the part-time role of Specialist Halves Coach.

Roosters Head Coach Trent Robinson was pleased to have Cronk join the Club’s coaching ranks.

“Cooper’s experience and football nous is unmatched and it’s great to have him on board in this role where he will pass on his knowledge and work on the development of our halves across all grades at the Club,” said Robinson.

Speaking about his new role with the Roosters, Cronk said: “I have spoken previously about what the Roosters have made possible for me over the last couple of years, and I’m excited to remain involved with the Club in this new role.

“There are some great young kids coming through the ranks at the Roosters and I’m looking forward to working with them,” added Cronk.

Cronk will commence his new role when the Roosters NRL pre-season commences mid next month.
