The Newcastle Jets will go up against three NBN State League oppositions as part of their upcoming pre-season fixtures, beginning on Wednesday 8th June.
The Jets face three challenging pre-season games, the first against Hamilton Olympic who are currently sitting third in the NBN State League. Following that match they will then go head to head with the Weston Bears.
New Jets CEO Robbie Middleby will have his loyalties tested as the Jets line up against Valentine Phoenix FC, Robbie’s junior team.
“I’m sure each game will prove to be extremely challenging and entertaining and will provide the team with a first-rate test for the players leading into the season,” said Branko Culina, Newcastle Jets Coach.
The games will be held prior to the team taking a well earned break before they tackle teams from the NSW Premier League.
