“After a thorough recruitment process we are delighted to announce Marc Lloyd as the new head coach of Ipswich Women’s 1st team” said Club Chair Sarah Logan “Marc impressed us with his enthusiasm, knowledge and ambition and we are delighted he has signed a 3 year contract, giving us a long term vision. Thanks go to outgoing coach Mariette Rix, who has created a fantastic legacy for Marc to build on and we are excited to see how this develops over the years ahead.”

Lloyd, who works at The Royal Hospital School, echoed Logan’s enthusiasm at his appointment “I’m absolutely delighted to be appointed Head Coach of Ipswich Ladies 1st Team!

It’s a real privilege to join a club with such a proud history and tradition of success. What excites me most is the opportunity to work with a committed, hard-working group of players who are hungry to take the next step.

With eyes firmly set on National League hockey—both indoors and outdoors—I can’t wait to get started and help the team push towards their big ambitions.
