Wight Eagles FC has appointment of Sammie Mumford as ladies team manager for the remainder of this season.
Sammie has been assistant to former manager Dan Verstraeten this season and has worked closely with the current coaching and playing staff.
Sammie has a lot of experience, having played for Shanklin Ladies when they played in the Southern Region and has been part of the Isle of Wight Ladies Island games side for a number of years.
Chairman Mike Ross said,
“We are delighted to announce Sammie as Manager. She has our full backing to carry on with the squad this season and continue to develop our talent and youth coming through.”
Sammie has already managed a few games during the season, working along side Dan and Richard Mumford – who will step into the Assistant Manager role.
Dan will still be working closely with Sammie as Director of football as Eagles look to supply the Ladies side with talent from the Eagles youth academy.
Sammie said,
“I couldn’t have asked for a better group of players to begin my coaching journey. I’m super excited to learn & develop alongside them.”
