Former Aston Villa midfielder Conor Hourihane has returned to the club.
Hourihane has taken up a part-time coaching role with the U16s.
He told the Southern Stars podcast: I'm going to be one of a couple of coaches. It's amazing just to be involved in it.
I've got great contacts there still from the time I was there (at Villa). I was in and out there recently over the summer, and they offered me the job of being involved with the under-16s, and I absolutely jumped at it.
It'll be great for the experience and to have on my CV going forward. I'm trying to do as much as I can off the pitch to get ready for the transition over the next couple of years."
At 32, Hourihane intends to play on next seaso.
