Harrogate Town has appointed Jason Barker as women’s director of football.

Mr Barker will be the first full-time member of staff dedicated to the women’s team.

He will be tasked with overseeing the development of women’s and girls' football at Harrogate Town from the player development centre to the first team.

Mr Barker, who has 10 years coaching experience and was formerly at Liverpool FC’s academy, said:

“I am looking forward to starting work with Harrogate Town and continuing the hard work the club has already done to build the foundations of the women's/girls section.
“The next steps for us at Harrogate are to expand the women's/girls' section of this already very successful club and promote more playing opportunities for girls and women in the Harrogate district.”


Club operations director Dave Riley added:

“I am delighted that Jason has been appointed as our girls' and women’s director of football. This is a real positive step and another major milestone within the football club for the women and girls’ game.
