Exiles have named Niki Lanzon as their new first-team coach.
The former Neptunes and Malta stalwart replaces Simon Vassallo who was not retained as the first-team coach.
“Exiles Welbee’s are proud to confirm Niki Lanzon our Senior Coach for the men’s team with immediate effect,” the club said in a statement.
“Niki needs no introduction to Maltese waterpolo having captained Neptunes and the Malta National Team for a long period of time.
“In fact Niki boasts 10 Summer League Championship wins with Neptunes and a National Team career that spans 19 years from 1997 to 2016.
“Last season Niki coached the Neptunes Juniors and Marsaxlokk Senior Teams.”
The arrival of Lanzon and Exiles will be a huge lift for the Sliema-based side who are keen to continue to invest in their young talent and try and build a competitive team for the upcoming season.
This summer, Exiles failed to reach the Premier Division and were forced to play in the First Division where they finished the campaign in third place.
