Wantage Town F.C. are pleased to confirm the appointment of the following Management Teams for the forthcoming season.
1st Team. (Hellenic Premier League )
Manager Andy Wallbridge, after achieving the Club's most successful season in his first season as Manager, continues as Manager, but will be assisted by the experienced Andy Zoldan, who joins the club from Carterton. Andy Zoldan takes over from Ellis Langford, who is taking up an Army posting abroad. The Club is extremely grateful to Ellis, who has been key to the success and development of the Club over the past five years. Sean McCullough continues as Physio.
Chairman Tony Woodward stated that ' Andy Wallbridge's reappointment, linked with the appointment of Andy Zoldan, allied to the total commitment within the Club to resolve the ground grading and planning issues, confirms our ambition to step up to the next level.'
Reserves. (Hellenic Reserves)
The success of the Reserve squad as a conduit for the emerging and developing talent within the Club, as well as providing essential support to the Senior squad, is regarded as a priority by the Club's management. We are pleased to entrust the team management of the Reserves to Marcus 'Eric' Brown, who will work with Nick Rowe and Steve Bell to develop the Reserves in the new Hellenic Reserve league system next season.
A Team. (North Berks Football League)
James Hicks and Mark Rowland, who so narrowly missed out on promotion this season will continue to develop this essential starting point, particularly for younger players emerging from the youth system.
The Club regards this team as the entry point into the Club for local talent, and regards its link with the Reserves as a means of enabling players to progress within the Club.

James Donnelly continues to manage this vital section of the Club, enabling former players to retain their links with the Club, assisted by Phil Lynch.
