Eleven days after being unveiled as Silver Strikers Head Coach, Peter Mponda has named his backroom staff ahead of the new season.
In his one-year deal, Mponda was given the liberty to choose his backroom staff.
Announcing his selection, Mponda has maintained Peter Mgangira as the first assistant coach while Young Chimodzi Junior has been named as his second assistant coach. Taonga Chimodzi has been maintained as the team’s Data Analyst and the new gaffer has also maintained Andrew Mtalimanja, Chikondi Kaminga as Physiotherapist and Team Doctor respectively whilst Baby Kamwambe remains as the Kit Manager.
The new faces in the technical panel are Zicco Mkanda who has been roped in as a Strikers Coach, Emmanuel Chipatala as Team Manager, Cassim Wasili as the Welfare Manager, and McDonald Mphande as the new Goalkeeper’s Trainer.
Mponda said he has made the selections after serious consideration of their abilities and believes the panel will help bring positive results.
“Some days ago I was announced as the new Head Coach of Silver Strikers Football Club which is a huge task that requires a panel to share roles and fight for a common goal, therefore, I have made a selection of my technical panel going into the 2024 season and I am confident these people will help me in executing my job as head coach perfectly. I plead with the fans and everyone associated with the team to rally behind us as we aim to work to get the much-needed results”, said Mponda.
The team is currently in its second week of pre-season training ahead of the new football season.
