The Bulldogs are led by head coach Stephen Bailey who is entering his eighth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 41-36 over the past seven seasons at Ranburne. Under his direction the Bulldogs have qualified for the playoffs a total of four times. They have not won a region crown with Coach Bailey. The Bulldogs could find themselves challenging for one of the playoff spots for region four this season with a few breaks and a little improvement. Ranburne came up short of the playoffs last year but are optimistic of a return to the post season this year.
