Ben White has confirmed his departure from Gillingham's coaching staff.

White was put in charge of the Gills youth team last January but won't be involved at Priestfield this season.

He made the announcement via Twitter on Tuesday.

White said: "After a productive and enjoyable two seasons I have decided step away from my role at Gillingham.

"I would like to thank the club for the opportunity and I look forward to seeing some of the talented and hard-working young players within the ranks earning a chance in the first team."

Earlier this week former Gills player Craig Stone was appointed manager of the club's under-18 and under-23 sides.

Stone has left his role with the Gillingham girls academy but said: "I know they will be in safe hands."
