JEFF ABBOTT STEPS DOWN AS CHAIRMAN

JEFF STEPS DOWN AFTER TWO YEARS IN POST

Club Chairman Jeff Abbott has stepped down after two years in the role and will be replaced as Chairman by current Marketing and PR Officer Phil Wood.

The Executive Committee would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Jeff, who has been an active volunteer with the Club for over 14 years as a coach, team manager, Vice-Chairman and subsequently Chairman.

New Chairman Phil Wood said “Jeff has for years been a fantastic volunteer for our Club, and has played such a huge part in the progression the Club has made in recent years. I would personally like to thank Jeff for all he has done for Frodsham JFC, our players, coaches, volunteers and the wider community.”

Jeff will continue to support the Club in a non-executive role and will lead on the arrangements for this summers football festival.

Phil Wood steps into the role of Chairman after eight years on the Executive Committee in the role of Marketing and PR Officer, Phil said: “It is an absolute honour and privilege to be named at Chairman of our great Club. I have been loved being part of the Executive Committee since I was elected in 2015, and I take great pride in the huge strides we have taken as a Club in recent years. I hope to oversee a period of continuity and continued improvements as we move forward.”

There have also been some additional moves within our Executive Committee, with Joe Bell moving form his role as Facilities Officer to the role of Vice-Chairman, with John Fitton stepping into the Facilities Officer role. The Club now also has a second Child Welfare Officer with Donna Rhodes joins Peter Russell in that role.

Anyone interested in taking on the Marketing and PR Officer role should contact the Executive Committee.

We wish all new and moving offices every success in their new roles.
