Yet another national coach has resigned from the Barbados Football Association (BFA).

This time it is Renaldo “PeeWee” Gilkes who confirmed with Weekend Sport that he has tendered his resignation from the coaching position which he took up in 2021.

When asked his reasons for stepping aside as coach of the Barbados Under-15 boys team, Gilkes said his vision and that of the BFA did not align or contrast at this point and, therefore saw it fit to move on.

“I just think at present that we are not compatible, that our ambitions for the group (Under-15s) contrast. There were a couple of instances when I tried to speak with the decision-makers about the programme that I don’t think was prioritised,” he said. (ML)
