Firstly, we welcome our new Assistant Manager Stewart Watkins, who joins us after a spell with Newent Town as first team manager. He has a wealth of knowledge from his previous positions, and time in local football and is a UEFA B licenced coach.

Daizhari Tucker and Ben Clay have also followed Stewart from Newent Town. Daizhari joins as a coach, working towards his UEFA B license, and Ben, a goalkeeper coach has a level 2 in his respected field.
Ronald Etherington is another new face, Ronald has previous experience at Bristol City and Stevenage in analysis and will be working with the first team on exactly that, along with opposition analysis. Lewis Jinks joins as first-team Sports Therapist. Lewis has recently completed a year's placement at Kidderminster Harriers. Tom Dale and Oliver Guest continue from last season as coach and S/C coach respectively.

Raiders is a family and it's always sad to see people move on. We would like to send our best wishes to Craig Teague, our former secretary who leaves after seven years at the club, we can't thank him enough for his dedication and commitment throughout the club's journey.

Marc Wright, former GK coach, has taken a position with Stourport Swifts— an unmistakable character with charisma and passion for his role. We wish him well.

Jamie Gillespie stepped up late into last season as Vice-Chairman and will continue in this position for the 2024/25 season. George Cornes heads into the position of Secretary and will be supported by Louise Jones as his number two, while Ali Woods will continue as Treasurer.

We are grateful to all our volunteers, past and present, and without them, the club wouldn’t function day to day. We are heading into a new chapter, in which everyone is fully committed to building the future Raiders.

Up the Raiders!
