Day: April 1, 2026

Recently, Robert Hamilton stepped down from his role as Interim Chairman/Vice Chairman of the Board for personal reasons, and we’d like to place on record our appreciation for Robert’s efforts in his time on the Board. 

This brings the number of departures from the Board to three this season, and with that in mind, we can announce the co-opting of three new members: Ian McKinney, Steven Lowry, and Ryan McMullan. Additionally, we have restructured the roles within the Board.

This evening, we are pleased to confirm that Robert Fleck has become our Chairman, with Steven Lowry assuming the Vice Chair role. Steven has been the driving force behind our Ladies teams. Paul Jenkins will take on the role of Treasurer, while all other posts remain the same, with Tim Duff as Secretary, and Robert Bell as President. 

We are still on the lookout to add further members to our Board, and if this is something you would like to know more about, please get in contact with any of the Board members. 

With our recruitment process now completed, we can confirm that outgoing Manager Barry Baggley has now left the Club.

We wish to place on record our thanks to Barry and his team for all their efforts during their time at Dixon Park. We wish Barry and his coaching staff all the best in their future footballing endeavours.

Paul Finnegan and Stewart McIlroy will be taking interim control of the upcoming matches against Rathfriland & Strabane, with Nathan McConnell taking charge for the first time when we face Oxford Sunnyside on 10 April.
