Craig Clark departs

Kilmarnock Football Club can confirm the departure of first team technical coach Craig Clark, who leaves to pursue a new opportunity.

Craig has been with the club in various capacities stretching all the way back to 2005, where he started out as head of junior academy. After spending a decade in the role, he left for pastures new in both China and Canada before returning to BBSP Stadium Rugby Park at the beginning of 2018.

He headed up our Under-18s side for many years, helping to play a pivotal role in the development of numerous young players such as Ethan Brown, David Watson and Bobby Wales.

Three years ago, Craig was drafted into the first team fold by then-manager Derek McInnes. He has played a big part in helping to coach the team on its way to a fourth-placed finish, our wonderful European run in 2024 and maintaining the club’s top-flight status.

Craig goes with the best wishes and thanks of everyone at Kilmarnock FC.
