Dangie has done brilliant job over the last few years and I\u2019m really grateful to him for giving me the opportunity to be involved. It\u2019s unfortunate that he had to step down as head coach but having got to know Callum over the last 12 months, I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll do an excellent job taking the Barons forward.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cWith Marcus as assistant coach and with the team Callum is building both on and off the ice, I\u2019m confident the Barons will be competing to win more silverware this season.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4335\" src=\"https:\/\/solihull-barons.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/65D98735-21DB-4A2C-BC4C-4F8353141DA3-764x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solihull-barons.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/65D98735-21DB-4A2C-BC4C-4F8353141DA3.jpeg 764w, https:\/\/solihull-barons.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/65D98735-21DB-4A2C-BC4C-4F8353141DA3-224x300.jpeg 224w, https:\/\/solihull-barons.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/65D98735-21DB-4A2C-BC4C-4F8353141DA3-96x128.jpeg 96w, https:\/\/solihull-barons.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/65D98735-21DB-4A2C-BC4C-4F8353141DA3-24x32.jpeg 24w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>The return of Rob to the Barons bench was also welcomed by Callum Bowley keen to make the most of the former number 19s experience :<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>\u201cI\u2019m pleased that Rob has agreed to join me and Marcus as part of the coaching team for next season and will continue to help out at trainings and at home games.
