Lloyd Tennant Appointed Ireland Women's Team's Head Coach
World Cup Qualifier: Cricket Ireland has appointed English coach Lloyd Tennant as the new head coach of the Ireland Women's team, marking a fresh chapter for the national side following the departure of Ed Joyce. Tennant will formally begin his role on June 1, stepping in after Joyce concluded his nearly six-year stint last month following Ireland’s unsuccessful ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier campaign.
Tennant, 57, brings with him a wealth of coaching experience across both men’s and women’s cricket. A former professional cricketer with Leicestershire, Tennant is an ECB Level 4 qualified coach who has led the Central Sparks regional side for four seasons and has been deeply involved in the England Women's development system.
His background includes roles with the England Women’s Pathway, Manchester Originals in The Hundred, and a stint as the ECB’s Women and Girls’ Talent Manager. He has also served as a bowling coach for the England Under-19 men’s team.
