Cavanagh, only the second VFLW coach in the Club’s history, joined Williamstown at the end of 2022 and led the program across three seasons.
During his tenure, he guided the Seagulls to finals in every season, including their first-ever finals appearance in 2023, his debut year.
The following year, his side claimed the minor premiership and recorded their first finals victory.
In 2025, the Seagulls progressed to the second week of finals, yet fell short of a premiership after being defeated by reigning premiers North Melbourne-Werribee in Cavanagh’s last game at the helm.
Across his three seasons, Cavanagh achieved a coaching record of 30 wins, 17 losses and two draws, and is credited with fast-tracking the development of the Club’s emerging program.
The Williamstown Football Club is extremely grateful for all his hard work and significant contribution and wishes Liam, his wife Louisa and daughter Heidi all the best for the future.
