Interim Head Coach

Chris Treacy

Chris has been involved in British American Football since picking up the sport at University in 2010. Since then he’s trained as a BAFRA official and later a coach alongside his playing career. 

Starting his coaching career as a Defensive Coordinator at Brunel Burners, Chris’ defense conceded only 11 points in their 8 game regular season shutting out opponents for 23 consecutive quarters. 

After moving to the midlands, Chris started coaching at his alma mater Staffordshire University where he started as the Defensive Coordinator before taking over as Head Coach and Offensive Coordinator in 2023. He’s also been involved in coaching as a RB Coach and more recently Offensive Coordinator at the Birmingham Lions Women where he won a National Championship in 2024.

Chris joined the Surge in 2024 as a player/coach and the teams Offensive Coordinator, a year that saw the team promoted to Division One, averaging 27 points per game before falling to the Sandwell Steelers in the National Semi-Final.

Taking over as our interim Head Coach for the 2025 Season, we can’t wait to see what he brings to the table to help cement our place in division one before pushing for the playoffs and beyond!
