Women's Head Coach stands down

November 14th 2022FGR Media

Women's Head Coach Neil Moore has announced his intention to stand down from the position with immediate effect.  

Tom Needham will take on the role of Head Coach and will be supported by David Francis as Assistant Head Coach. Needham took charge of Rovers' 3-0 win over Ilminster Town on Sunday, which saw FGR climb to the top of the table.

Paragraph Break

On his departure, Moore said: "Unfortunately, due to other commitments, I can no longer give the team the attention it deserves. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the team and thank them for welcoming me and putting the effort in on the pitch. I wish them all the best for the remainder of the season."

David Hennessy, Head Of Women's Football, commented: "We are genuinely sad to see Neil go, but we understand his reasons for doing so. From the outset, Neil has set about instilling an ethos and ethic in the team that has helped us to be where we are. 

"He has helped develop players and coaches, and we will seek to sustain these values and standards for the remainder of the season. The Club has every confidence in Tom and Dave to build upon their continued success from this weekend's win."
