Coach predicts newly signed Canberra recruit will quickly become a Pioneers fan favourite

Castec Rural Pioneers are excited to announce yet another signing with Will Mayfield from the Canberra Gunners putting pen to paper to move from the NBL1 East competition to be part of the Mount Gambier program.

Mayfield averaged 17.6 points per game at 52.9% throughout the 2022 NBL1 East season, including a season high of 34 points against Illawarra last August, together with 4.3 rebounds and 3.1 assists each game.

The signing of Mayfield further strengthens the Pioneers 2023 roster and provides head coach Richard Hill increased versatility.

“Will had a tremendous season in a championship winning team last year,” Hill said. “He is a do it all, tough and competitive player who’s versatility will see him log minutes at the two, three and four spots for us.

“I expect Will to become a fan favourite very quickly with his combative, wholehearted play.” The 2023 NBL1 South season starts in April with the Pioneers set to play home games at the new Wulanda Recreation and Convention Centre.
