Revised Youth Team Set-Up Takes Shape

Following the recent resignation of Under 19 Team Coach and Head of Youth Development, Chris Hillcoat, Clyde’s Assistant Manager Stuart Balmer has replaced Chris in both capacities and is now working in conjunction with Clyde‘s Director of Operations, Bob McPherson.

The Club are delighted that Stuart, with all his experience and with the benefit of being a full-time direct employee, has so enthusiatically taken over this lead role. He will no doubt very quickly make his mark. Bob will support Stuart regarding administrative matters such as liaising witht the SFA.

Clyde‘s youth team set-up is expected to evolve over the coming months but at this stage the organisational structure is as follows:
