Pepper to oversee academy women’s programme

Jonathan Pepper has been brought in to mastermind the women’s programme for the academy.

The former Burnley academy manager is a familiar name to Spireites as his father Bob was a long-standing club secretary and director at Saltergate.

He will oversee the Chesterfield FC women’s first team, academy, U16s and ETC ahead of the 2022/23 season launch.

Chesterfield FC women’s first-team trials will be taking place this Friday at the new training hub in Clowne, starting at 7pm.

It is an amazing opportunity for talented players in the region to play for the newly launched Chesterfield FC women’s team as they embark on the new challenge ahead.

A limited number of places are available. If you would like to attend, please send an email to academy@spireitestrust.org.uk.
