Coaching vacancy open The Stars have advertised the WBBL head coach role, signaling a change ahead of the next season. Reset for the Stars. It’s a move to refresh the women’s team setup and find someone to lead the squad going forward. What’s next. Applications will be reviewed as the club looks to appoint a coach to build for WBBL 11. The move initially emerged through job adverts online for the WBBL head coach position with Stars subsequently confirming the new structure. "With the realignment at Cricket Victoria, the Stars will recruit a head coach to be solely focused on the WBBL, with Andy working closely alongside them to tie the state and WBBL programs together," the club said in a statement. Rebrand plans scrapped... for now The original plan was to merge Stars and Renegades into a single Melbourne club for next season. That’s been paused, so both teams will keep their traditional brands for at least 2026-27.Renegades under CA oversight While the brands stay separate, Renegades will run under a temporary structure with oversight from Cricket Australia. Coaching vacancies at both clubs Renegades also need a new WBBL head coach after Simon Helmot stepped down earlier this year. The team is currently led by Australia captain Sophie Molineux. Stars are also advertising for a new WBBL head coach. Various names have been linked to the Renegades BBL job including Greg Shipperd, while Code Sports reported that Ryan Campbell and Luke Ronchi are also in the running. Across both WBBL and BBL whoever takes the roles could well be just as an interim given further potential changes when the club is sold.
