Peter Williams used to be an academy coach at Wigan, & was very successful I may add! He was let go along with Darren Fletcher who was also a very successful academy coach. Both won several trophys for the U18's & U20's!

I think we should be careful as supporters

Under 20's Coach Darren Fletcher has left the Club by mutual consent. A change in structure and a full time teaching role has meant Darren was unable to continue in the role due to work commitments.

Speaking about the news, Chairman Ian Lenagan said:

"We are disappointed to be losing Darren and thank him for the hard work he has put with the Under 20's over the last couple of years. We wish him all the best for the future.
"After discussions with new Head Coach Shaun Wane, the Club have decided to make some changes to the Reserve and Academy backroom staff for the forthcoming season.

"John Winder, our Head of Youth Development will continue to oversee all aspects of Youth and Player Performance across the Club and will also take charge of the Under 20's side. John is an excellent Coach and will be assisted by Peter Williams who steps up from his role as the Under 18's Head Coach.

"Matty Peet will take over the responsibility of the Club's Academy side and will be assisted by Paul Deacon who will also have some specialist work with the Club's halfbacks and kickers.

In Shaun Wane we trust!

Whitehaven coach James Coyle says he is in no rush to appoint a new assistant following the departure of Peter Williams.

Coyle had known for a while that Williams was finding it difficult juggling his rugby commitments at Whitehaven, the development of his own construction business.

Williams, a family friend brought in after Coyle took on the Whitehaven job, was not at either of the last two games when both Swinton and Sheffield were defeated.

Coyle said: “I had no hesitation in asking Peter to join me at Whitehaven. I have known him for a long time and he was helping out at Wigan St Patrick’s where I had played before turning pro.

"He’d had some great experience working at Wigan and he was a perfect man to bring in. I’d like to think we complimented each other in the way we did our coaching as I believe we both have different strengths.

"To that degree it was a good partnership and I know I’ve learnt off him and I’d like to think he’s learnt off me. We both are on the same wavelength when it comes to rugby league and see the game, and how we want to play, in a similar way.
