Peter Clarke appointed Sydney Sixers WBBL coach

On 23 July 2026 Peter Clarke was named the Sydney Sixers WBBL coach. Clarke, the current NSW WNCL coach, succeeds Matthew Mott after Mott was appointed Sixers BBL coach.

Clarke arrives into the WBBL role while remaining identified with his position as NSW WNCL coach. The vacancy at the Sixers' women's program followed Mott's elevation to the club's BBL coaching post. The appointments align the Sixers' coaching staff across their men’s and women’s competitions.

Peter Clarke will take responsibility for the Sixers' WBBL team in the wake of the reshuffle that placed Matthew Mott in charge of the club's BBL side. The move formalises the swap of leadership across the two franchises within the Sydney Sixers setup. Neither appointment replaces the factual detail that Clarke was the NSW WNCL coach prior to accepting the WBBL position.

Matthew Mott's new role as Sixers BBL coach is the direct reason for Clarke's promotion to the women's program. The sequence of appointments—Mott to the BBL post and Clarke to the WBBL role—constitutes the primary organisational change announced on 23 July 2026. Both names and titles are recorded as the official coaching designations for the Sixers' respective squads.

The developments mean the Sixers will field teams under the guidance of Clarke in the WBBL and Mott in the BBL. Those factual assignments reflect the club's recent coaching decisions. Each coach's title is now associated with the corresponding Sixers competition.

The appointment of Peter Clarke to the Sydney Sixers WBBL and Matthew Mott to the Sixers BBL are the confirmed changes announced on 23 July 2026. These staffing moves realign the club’s coaching responsibilities between the two competitions.
