With more than three weeks of hard work in the bank so far, the Central Coast Mariners are ready to kick off the 2026/27 season against Sydney United 58 in tonight’s Australia Cup Round of 32 clash.
John Hutchinson has put the squad through an intense pre-season to date, with intense and detailed sessions – on the pitch, in the gym and in the analysis room – as he looks to implement his playing style ahead of the new campaign.
A host of new faces have quickly settled into the group alongside experienced leaders including the likes of Storm Roux, Andrew Redmayne and Trent Sainsbury.
Here is a selection of the best photos from pre-season so far. All our 2026/27 pre-season content is proudly fuelled by our long-term official partners Bulk Nutrients.
