Pompey Women have appointed Dan King as first team coach.
Jay Sadler’s new addition studied at the University of Portsmouth before working his way up the men’s non-league pyramid whilst he studied for his UEFA B Licence.
King has experience in coaching in the Women’s National League with Crawley Wasps, where he worked alongside the Blues’ current assistant manager Kim Stenning.
Dan said: “I’m delighted to be part of the Pompey Women set up. Having come up against the team last year and seeing how they like to play, the passion they have for the game, but also the passion the fans have for the club in general, is amazing.
