Australia Assistant Coach Twining Appointed As Melbourne Renegades Head Coach For WBBL
Renegades General Manager Max Abbott: Reigning Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) champions Melbourne Renegades on Friday said they have appointed Australian women's national team assistant coach Gavan Twining as their new head coach.
Twining takes over the reins from Simon Helmot, the championship-winning coach who stepped down in April to pursue overseas coaching opportunities in various franchise leagues. He has been serving in the Australian team since late 2024, and played an instrumental role in the side winning Women’s T20 World Cup this year in England.
At the Renegades, Twining will reunite with star Australian international players, including national skipper Sophie Molineux and leg-spin bowling all-rounder Georgia Wareham. He will join the Renegades camp in Melbourne following Australia’s upcoming series against Bangladesh and New Zealand.
