6 #NPLNSW MARC WARREN

Marc Warren is a player who gives nothing less than 100% in every game he plays. He has been a most consistent player for the Sharks and is an important part of the Clubs desire to be at the top of the League. It has taken almost a decade and a total of nine clubs for Marc to find his way back home to the Sharks. All this and Marc is only 28, which is known to be the age when a footballer is at his peak. It certainly started that way for the Sharks number 3 in 2019 and now in 2020. Marc has added great energy and professionalism to the Sharks outfit. He spent his early years as a professional with Central Coast, Sheffield United and Airdrie in the UK before being signed to A-League with Sydney FC and later Perth Glory. He has also represented Australia at Under 17 and under 20 level and had the honour of captaining his country. Marc’s experience will be a big plus for the Sutherland Junior and Senior Club.
