Norwood Football Club is pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Ross as the new Football Operations Manager.

Mark has previously been working for the Adelaide Football Club where he was part of the recruitment and player development department from 1999 to 2007.

The process to select Mark was conducted by McArthur Management Services and an interview panel, including former coach Peter Rhode, made their decision earlier this week. President Joe Tripodi said, "Mark was an outstanding candidate and we look forward to him making a significant contribution at Norwood".

Mark will begin at the club on December 17th 2007.

The club would like to thank Jamie Mason for his contribution throughout 2007 and wish him well for the future.
