WEST COAST assistant coach Darren Harris will not continue with the club beyond this season.
Harris, who was a part of the coaching structure that guided the club to the 2006 premiership spoke to coach John Worsfold today and will explore other opportunities in football and business at the end of the home-and-away season.
"John and I have come to a mutual agreement that I won't be renewing my contract in 2009," Harris said.
"I will continue until the end of the season with a key focus on growing the squad and maintaining the highest professional standards.
"I am currently exploring options in both the business and football world that could see me return to Victoria.
"The West Coast Eagles have provided me with a fantastic learning opportunity and I thank them for allowing me to develop my skills in this environment. My relationships with John, the players and fellow coaches are something I am very proud of and these will remain strong.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute and will only ever speak of the club in the highest regard and know that their future will be a very positive one."
Worsfold said Harris played an important role in West Coast's success during his time at the club
"Darren has made a strong contribution to the club in the last three years and certainly played his part in our success in that time," he said.
"I wish him every success in the future."
