Jay Tregonning re-signed as Australia Women coach for 2023

Rugby Australia has confirmed Wallaroos coach Jay Tregonning has been re-signed for the 2023 season.

Tregonning took over at the end of 2021, tasked with guiding a program that had limited game-time into the delayed Rugby World Cup.

Under his guidance, the Wallaroos managed to reach the quarter-final after wins over Scotland and Wales, the furthest they had gone since 2010.

They were eventually eliminated by world number one England, their 29th straight win in a row.

The Wallaroos debuted 19 new players in 2022, with Tregonning looking to continue their development heading into the future.

The Wallaroos also confirmed an expanded calendar in 2023, starting with a one-off Test against Fijiana.

This will be followed by the Pacific Four Series and the O’Reilly Cup against Black Ferns, before the inaugural WXV competition later in the year.
