FOOTBALL Australia secretly dropped an investigation into claims of emotional and verbal abuse of teenage girls in the Newcastle Jets academy after its external investigator interviewed only a handful of people.
An ongoing Newcastle Herald investigation can reveal that it's been more than two years since a complaint was made to Sport Integrity Australia (SIA), which passed it to Football Australia in June 2024, alleging that Jets female academy technical director and former A-League Women coach Ryan Campbell was "bullying children".
