Zambra (neé Roche) called time on her playing career at the end of the 2024 season and joined the Rovers coaching set-up at the start of this year.
She becomes the league’s third current female manager, after Peamount’s Emma Donoghue and DLR Waves’ Laura Heffernan.
Rovers are currently sixth in the league table, 12 points off the leaders, Athlone Town, with six games remaining.
Zambra will take charge of their next fixture against Waterford FC on Tuesday.
Rovers also face holders Shelbourne in a repeat of last year’s FAI Cup quarter-final on 16 August.
We can confirm that Stephanie Zambra has been appointed interim Head Coach of our Women’s First Team and will prepare the squad for Tuesday’s game against Waterford at Tallaght Stadium
