Stuart Watkiss (born 8 May 1966) is an English football coach and former professional player who is the assistant manager of National League South club Eastbourne Borough.

As a player, he was a defender and notably played in the Football League with Wolverhampton Wanderers, Crewe Alexandra, Walsall, Hereford United and Mansfield Town.

1982

He then joined Willenhall Town, for the youth team, which reached the Midland Floodlit Youth League Cup final at Villa Park during the 1982–83 season.

He later joined his home town club Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he served his apprenticeship as a 17-year-old.

1984

His debut was on 17 March 1984 in a Division One game with Sunderland; however, after making only two appearances, he joined West Midlands (Regional) League side Gresley Rovers in June 1985, before making a move to Crewe Alexandra in January 1986.

1996

He went on to play for Rushall Olympic, Walsall, and Hereford United before moving to Mansfield Town in 1996, scoring his only goal for the Stags in a 2–4 win at Darlington in October when he met a Ben Sedgemore cross with a header which bounced downward and up into the top corner of the net.

1999

A few of weeks later, the club's official website revealed that "the worst kept secret in the club's history had been confirmed", and Watkiss was promoted to assistant manager.

Manager Billy Dearden explained, "I gave the position a lot of thought and have decided that Stuart is the best man for the job. He is a young coach who could go a long way in the game. He is at the right age to work with me, and it is a huge reward for him. He has done an excellent job with the youth team and it was a huge wrench to take him away from the youth team."

Watkiss said "I am confident in my ability, I wouldn’t have gone for the job if not. Obviously time will tell if I am a success or not, but I am cautiously optimistic. It will be great working with Bill Dearden. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience within the game and I will be watching and learning all the time."
