Peter Clarke Appointed Sydney Sixers WBBL Coach Replacing Matthew Mott

The Sydney Sixers have confirmed a major change in their women’s coaching staff with Peter Clarke stepping into the WBBL head coach role.

Seamless Transition for Sixers Women’s Team

Peter Clarke arrives directly from his position as NSW WNCL coach and will now lead the Sixers in the Women’s Big Bash League.

The move follows the appointment of former Sixers WBBL coach Matthew Mott to the men’s BBL coaching position with the same franchise.

Clarke Brings WNCL Experience

Clarke has been handling the NSW WNCL side in recent seasons and will now apply that experience to the T20 format with the Sixers WBBL squad.

This internal progression keeps the franchise’s women’s program linked with its successful state setup.

The Sixers have opted for continuity by promoting from within the broader New South Wales cricket structure.

Mott Moves to BBL Role

Matthew Mott guided the Sixers WBBL team before receiving the opportunity to coach the men’s BBL side.

His departure created the opening that Peter Clarke has now filled.

The franchise clearly values coaches familiar with its systems and playing philosophy.

What This Means for the Squad

Players in the Sixers WBBL group will work under a coach already embedded in the NSW pathway and familiar with many emerging talents.

The appointment ensures the transition happens without major disruption to training methods or team culture.

Both the men’s and women’s programs now operate under coaches who have recent ties to the Sixers environment.

This coordinated approach across BBL and WBBL teams remains a key feature of the Sydney Sixers setup.
