Shane Deitz concludes tenure as West Indies women's head coach
After steering the team to consecutive T20 World Cup semi-finals, Deitz steps aside with Andre Coley named as interim lead.
Leadership transition for West Indies women
The West Indies women's cricket team is set for a change in coaching staff as Shane Deitz departs his role as head coach. Deitz leaves behind a notable legacy during his time with the squad, marked by consistent performances on the world stage.
Under his guidance, the team secured back-to-back appearances in the semi-finals of the Women’s T20 World Cup in both 2024 and 2026. This period of stability helped the side remain competitive against top-tier international opponents.
In the wake of this departure, Andre Coley has been appointed to step into the role on an interim basis. The transition aims to maintain the momentum built over recent seasons as the team looks ahead to their upcoming international fixtures. Further details regarding a permanent appointment are expected to be announced by the board in due course, but for now, the focus shifts to Coley’s interim tenure and the continuation of the team's strategic development.
