27岁的乔纳森·克莱门特被任命为澳大利亚A-League女子超级联赛布里斯班咆哮队的主教练,创造了澳大利亚体育史上最年轻主教练的纪录1。他打破了橄榄球联盟教练内森·布朗(29岁)和前西部武士队教练戴夫·韦塞尔斯(33岁)的记录,与圣基尔达VFL赢家艾伦·琼斯并列1。克莱门特从13岁开始就有执教经历,曾在多个女足俱乐部担任教练职位,包括在埃森顿皇家队担任19岁主教练期间率队在第一个赛季实现晋级1。
克莱门特对自己的新角色充满雄心。他表示:"领导力在当今社会与年龄无关。我想成为有史以来最伟大的教练,而不仅仅是最年轻的教练"1。他计划通过发展年轻本土人才和建立充满活力的球队文化来打造布里斯班咆哮队。在26人亚洲杯队伍中,仅有3名澳大利亚女足国家队球员在澳大利亚本土效力,反映出A-League女子组薪资较低(平均约30,000澳元)的现实1。布里斯班咆哮队2026-27赛季于10月17日对阵中央海岸水手队开始1。
Jonathan Clemente has been appointed head coach of Brisbane Roar in Australia's A-League Women's competition, making the 27-year-old the youngest head coach in Australian sports history 1. Clemente's appointment breaks previous records held by rugby league coach Nathan Brown at 29 years old and former Western Force coach Dave Wessels at 33 years old, though he shares the distinction with VFL coach Allan Jeans 1.
Reflecting on his historic appointment, Clemente stated that "leadership in today's society has nothing to do with age" and emphasized his ambition, saying "I want to be the greatest coach of all time, not just the youngest" 1. The coach began his coaching career at just 13 years old and has held various positions across women's football clubs 1. Earlier in his career, he led Essendon's under-19 team to finals qualification during his first season as head coach at age 19 1.
Clemente's appointment comes at a critical moment for women's football in Australia. Among the 26 players selected for the AFC Women's Asian Cup squad, only three currently play professionally in the A-League Women, reflecting the league's wage challenges with average salaries around AUD 30,000 1. Brisbane Roar's 2026-27 season will commence on October 17 against Central Coast Mariners 1. Clemente has signaled his intent to build a vibrant team culture while developing young local talent and attracting more Australian national team players back to compete domestically 1.
