The Mackay Cutters have announced the departure of Hostplus Cup Head Coach Dave Elliott by mutual agreement.
The Cutters made the announcement earlier this month, saying in a statement “We would like to sincerely thank Dave for his work and effort over the past 10-months and wish the Elliott family all the very best in their future.”
Mr Elliot relocated to Mackay from Townsville in 2021, taking over the role as head coach from Michael Crawley for the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
Mr Elliot has previously filled the roles of Hastings Deering Colts head coach with the Townsville Blackhawks and Blackhawks Intrust Super Cup Assistant Coach.
He departs prematurely to join Norths Devils as head coach on a two-year deal starting in 2023 after receiving an unexpected phone call from Devils CEO Troy Rovelli.
The Cutters will make further announcements regarding future coaching appointments in the coming weeks.
