London Skolars have appointed former player Jermaine Coleman as their new head coach.

Coleman, who was previously the assistant coach of Hemel Stags, played 116 games for the Skolars between 2004 and 2011.

He said: “I am very excited to be coming back to the club as head coach. A head coach role was the next step for me and I can’t think of anywhere better to take it on than at the Skolars.

“It’s a great club and has a terrific future especially around the facilities development that is ongoing and the junior development that marks the club apart.”
