Glasgow Clan are a few signings and a few weeks away from the start of their Premier Sports Elite League season and seem to be in a good place.
The news of the players coming up that will make up the line-up continue to tantalise the Purple Army, but one thing above all could be the key to any success the club has…continuity. Malcolm Cameron arrived in Scotland last year as the Clan’s seventh head coach in just over 10 years, from when the club was formed in 2010. This season, barring any major changes in circumstance, he looks like being only the second man to stay at the organisation into a second campaign.
All too often, coaches have come and gone, usually with an enticing job offer from elsewhere as the cause of their departure and with that comes an overhaul of the team with it. Not this year as the prospect of Cameron, having already laid the foundations in a somewhat unconventional season, gets ready to continue the work he began. You only need to look around the other Elite League teams to see how having the same man in charge for more than one campaign is at the heart of their success.
