Recently appointed Queen’s Park Academy Director Tommy McIntyre has wasted no time in bringing in his own replacement with the hugely-respected Anton McElhone joining the Spiders as Head of Academy Coaching.
McElhone started his coaching career over 20 years ago when he had a brief spell in Scotland as an Academy Coach at Queen’s Park before working with Hibernian, ahead of a stint in England with Tottenham Hotspur and in America with New England Revolution before developing a “One Club” approach to player development and performance throughout the Celtic Academy where he worked very closely with their Head of Youth and Academy Chris McCart.
He has now returned to Queen’s Park with President Graeme Shields saying: “We welcome Anton back to the Club and we know that his wealth of experience and knowledge will be a great asset in assisting us achieve our goal of producing more young players capable of playing regularly for our first team.”
McIntyre, who was appointed to his new role at the end of last week, said: “I am delighted to bring Anton into our Academy as soon as I knew I was taking on the role of Academy Director. I am delighted that he has agreed to do that as bringing him on board is a bit of a coup for Queen’s Park.
“He has vast experience in the philosophy, methodology, periodisation and player development processes having worked with some of the best players in the world including Harry Kane at an under-15 level.
“Anton has also worked on development with some of the best managers and coaches in the world such as including John Collins, Andre Villas Boas, Mauricio Pochettino, Brad Friedel and Ange Postecoglou as well as the renowned John McDermott, who was his Academy Director at Tottenham Hotspur before becoming FA Technical Director and Alex Inglethorpe who is the Liverpool FC Academy Director.
“He will add a lot of value to The Queen’s Park Academy.”
