Bev Priestman will not return as head coach of the Canadian women’s soccer team following an independent report into the use of drones to spy on an opponent at this year’s Paris Olympics, Canada Soccer said on Tuesday.
Priestman and two other team officials were banned from any soccer-related activity for one year by FIFA after New Zealand complained that Canadian staff flew drones over their training sessions before their opening match in Paris.
