Football: Onchan announce new first team manager

Club hoping to confirm new combi team boss soon

Onchan AFC have announced who'll take up the post as first team manager at the club for the forthcoming new season.

James O'Kelly takes up the post with Ozzy Moore alongside him after both have stepped up from leading the Onchan combination side previously.

They guided the combi side to a sixth-place finish in Canada Life Combination One in the 2022/23 season and will take over the new role from David Rees and Tony Joughin.

The club is thanking Rees and Joughin for their 'hard work and success' in their tenure in the last few years.

Under their leadership the first team won their first trophy in over 20 years to take the Paul Henry Gold Cup in 2021 and also oversaw the side's first promotion in over 20 years to the Canada Life Men's Premier League in 2022.

The club adds it's planning to announce who will take on the role of combination team manager soon.
