As we turn a new page in our club’s history, we want to express our deepest gratitude to our outgoing Chair, Rich Bisp, for his outstanding dedication, commitment, and passion that have guided us through many successes, both on and off the pitch.

Under Rich’s leadership, our club reached new heights, leaving a legacy that will be felt for years to come. Whether it was celebrating victories, navigating challenges like a global pandemic, or supporting our coaches and teams, Rich always put the best interests of the club first, demonstrating unwavering dedication.

We are incredibly grateful for the countless hours Rich devoted to ensuring our club’s success. He has truly set the standard, and his legacy will always be a part of our story. On behalf of everyone at the club, we thank Rich for everything he has done and are pleased he will remain a committed volunteer, helping Tim and the Reserves, and continuing to keep our facilities in top condition.

As we bid farewell to one chapter, we are equally excited to welcome James Mapstone as the new interim Chair of our football club. James brings a wealth of experience, a deep passion for local football, and a clear vision for greater success on the pitch, enhanced community impact, and strengthened governance and financial sustainability. We are confident that under his leadership, our club will continue to thrive, grow, and reach even greater heights.

James has already demonstrated his commitment to building upon the solid foundations in place, and as he transitions from the dugout to the boardroom, we eagerly anticipate the fresh perspective and enthusiasm he will bring to drive us forward.

As we enter this new era, we encourage all members, supporters, players, and volunteers to join us in extending a warm welcome to James. Together, let’s continue to make our club the best it can be, both on and off the pitch.

We are excited about the future and confident that, with James at the helm, we’ll achieve even more success, strengthen our community partnerships, and create many more memorable moments.

Thank you, Rich, for everything you’ve done, and welcome, James, as we embark on this exciting journey together!
