Tarxien Rainbows F.C. have officially unveiled their technical staff for the upcoming 2025/2026 Malta Premier League season, as the club marks its long-awaited return to the top tier of Maltese football following a four-year absence.
Leading the team into the new campaign will be Head Coach Jacques Scerri, who continues in his role after guiding Tarxien to a successful promotion last season. He will be supported by Assistant Coaches Renald Bugeja and Paul Bugeja, with the latter rejoining the club in a move that adds further experience and quality to the backroom team.
Paul Bugeja, a UEFA A Elite Licensed and Fitness Coach, returns to Tarxien Rainbows after previously contributing significantly to the club’s development, and his reappointment is seen as a major boost ahead of a challenging Premier League campaign.
Roderick Agius will continue to oversee the goalkeepers, while Dillon Mercieca remains in charge of team operations as Team Manager. The club’s logistics and kit management will be handled by Godwin Gatt and Willgon Baldacchino.
Team Manager Dillon Mercieca expressed his satisfaction at the continuity and additions to the technical setup:
“As we prepare for our return to the Malta Premier League, the club was determined to retain the core of our technical staff, who played a vital role in last season’s promotion. We are also delighted to welcome back Paul Bugeja. We are confident that his return will further strengthen and complete our technical department for the 2025/2026 campaign.”
With preparations now underway for the season ahead, Tarxien Rainbows will look to build on last year’s momentum as they aim to re-establish themselves in Malta’s top division.
