Under Evans’ leadership, Newtown AFC will aim to strengthen its position within the league, enhance its commercial partnerships, and continue to be an integral part of the local community.
The outgoing Chairman, Howard Ellis, expressed his confidence in Nick Evans’ ability to lead the club to new heights. “It has been a privilege to serve as Chairman of Newtown AFC,” said Ellis. “I have no doubt that Nick’s expertise and dedication will drive the club towards great achievements. I wish him all the best in his new role and look forward to seeing Newtown AFC flourish under his guidance.”
