When you’re at a club for a long time, it becomes a part of you, so this is heartbreaking to see

Devastated for all involved in the club, staff, players and fans but one thing is for sure a club of this magnitude has no choice but to bounce back stronger

💛💙

Really excited for this chapter and thankful to everyone at Barnsley for the welcome and support. It’s been great working with such a technically strong group filled with passionate characters over the last few weeks, and gaining invaluable experience at a good level

[Barnsley Women’s Football Club @BarnsleyWFC]

We are delighted to announce that the club has recently secured the services of Liam Sutcliffe and Ben Harness to the coaching team.

Craige Richardson on bringing Liam Sutcliffe to the club:

‘I am delighted to be reunited with Liam in the dugout for the remainder of the season.

Liam brings a wealth of knowledge on the game and decades of experience from his leadership in professional mens academies, and I am looking forward to working with him again.’

Craige Richardson on Ben Harness joining the club:

‘Ben joined us recently and has a real passion for player development, having worked with Doncaster Rovers Belles previously. He is another fantastic addition to the club.

#youreds #barnsleywfc #bwfc

[Ben Harness @BenHarness5]

After 8 Years, growing as an individual, going through my coaching badges, taking on so many roles and responsibilities across different age groups from wildcats all the way through to 1st Team experience, my time at @donnybelles has come to an end.

I’ve got so many memories that I will cherish and forever hold with me. I have coached so many talented girls, that I know can go on to have a wonderful career and built some solid friendships with fellow coaches.

I wish every player, member of staff and the club as a whole every success for the future. This is probably the hardest decision I’ve had to make to date but the best for me in this moment.

Once a Belle, Always a Belle 💛💙

[Doncaster Rovers Belles @donnybelles]
