The Melbourne Stars are strengthening their coaching department for BBL|16, with inaugural captain Cameron White appointed as head coach of the club.
White will be joining forces with Peter Moores who has also put pen to paper, taking on a new role as the Stars’ director of coaching.
“This is a really exciting uplift for the Melbourne Stars, where we’re able to have multiple high calibre coaches working in our BBL program,” General Manager, James Rosengarten said.
“We are investing heavily into the club and this coaching department is of the highest quality.
“Cam has gained a wide range of experience as a player and coach, and is an outstanding tactical coach with a huge work rate.
“He will work alongside Peter Moores, who will play a pivotal role this season.
“Peter’s return shows just how committed he is to achieving success with the Stars and this new role is designed to add an extra layer of expertise for our players and coaching department.”
Moores has a wealth of coaching experience from all around the world, including two tenures with England’s national team, and three seasons with the Stars from BBL|13.
White, who spent the past two seasons coaching the Melbourne Renegades, will be back in green for the first time since BBL|04, where he played his fourth season for the Stars. He was previously an assistant coach at the Adelaide Strikers and Sydney Sixers, and is currently coaching the San Francisco Unicorns in the MLC.
