Combined Counties League Premier Division North Holyport have announced chairman Tony Andrews is to step down after leading the club for 30 years.
The Port have already begun the search for a new chair after releasing a statement: “Holyport Football Club is seeking candidates for the role of Chairperson.
“The club is eternally grateful to club stalwart Tony Andrews, who has served as Chairman for 30 plus years, guiding the club through numerous phases of development and league progression.
“Once the right candidate is found, Tony will move into the role of Club President.”

With the search beginning for a replacement for Mr Andrews, the club has released a ‘job specification’ to prospective candidates:
The Chairperson will play a key role in driving the club forward, both on and off the pitch. This includes:
- Building and maintaining relationships with local businesses and the wider community
- Helping develop the club’s facilities, structure and organisation
- Supporting the continued growth of our teams and players
- Helping shape the club’s future for generations to come
The 2027/28 season will mark Holyport FC’s 130th anniversary, having been formed in 1897 – providing a fantastic opportunity to be part of a very special chapter in the club’s history.
The club currently runs 10 teams, including 6 junior sides, with a seventh junior team joining at Christmas.
If you have the enthusiasm, ideas and commitment to help lead Holyport Football Club into its next chapter, we’d love to hear from you.
