JERRAD TYSON

Having developed his game as a junior on the Sunshine Coast, his efforts and performances at local/representative level were noticed and rewarded with a scholarship to the Australian Institute of Sport in 2007.

That early opportunity to learn in one of the country’s best full-time environments was a huge honour for him and would crucially pave the way for his professional career to kick off.

​

Over the course of the next 15 years Jerrad's career took him all over the globe and saw him sign in Hong Kong and India between spells at 5 different A-League clubs. He achieved international caps at U20 and U23 level and won trophies including the Australia Cup with Melbourne Victory and both the A-League Premiers plate and AFC Champions League crown with the Western Sydney Wanderers.

​

As one of the Sunshine Coast’s most successful footballers, Jerrad returned home to the Coast in 2022 passionate about improving the quality and standards of the local football scene and providing elite development and pathway opportunities to the next generation of aspiring goalkeepers.

​

Professionally qualified with a FA C Diploma and an AFC Level 1 Goalkeeper coaching licence, Jerrad is able to balance the reality of his real-world experiences with the structure of trusted international curriculums.

​

He has always believed in the talented boys and girls goalkeeping on the Sunshine Coast and surrounding areas and hopes to work with as many as possible in the future through the exciting ONE Goalkeeping programs.
