Northern Ireland senior women’s team manager Kenny Shiels has signed a two-year contract extension.
Shiels, who guided the team to next summer’s UEFA Women’s Euros in England with a memorable play-off victory against Ukraine earlier this month, is ready to build on that success during the remainder of his tenure.
“I’m delighted with this development and thankful to the Irish Football Association for making this happen,” he said.
“The success of the Northern Ireland senior women’s team has added to the interest in the women’s game from the grassroots level up. My job is to continue to build on the momentum we have generated and prepare for next summer’s Euros.”
