Alvechurch Management Team Sign New Two-Year Deal

Alvechurch, who earned a last-gasp place in the Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central play-offs before losing to Peterborough Sports in the semi-finals, have received a boost.

The Worcestershire outfit have announced that manager Ian Long and his assistant Richie Colwell have agreed a new two-year contract to remain at Lye Meadow and continue their journey.

Their record is impeccable, and the club feel that now is a good time to sure things up for the future.

Long and Colwell returned to take charge at Alvechurch in February 2020, just a day or so after the shock decision made by league rivals Stourbridge to end their relatively short stay at the War Memorial Ground.

Long took over the Glassboys helm in May 2019 after a hugely successful four years at Alvechurch.

Long led Tividale to the Midland League Premier Division title in 2014 before then guiding Alvechurch to back-to-back promotions.

Church finished fourth in the 2018/19 Premier Division Central but lost 3-0 to King`s Lynn Town in the play-off final – Lynn eventually winning the `super` play-off final against Warrington Town to win promotion to the Vanarama National League North.
