Assistant manager Barney Gritt will join Hatch at the Hurn Bridge Sports Club with coach James Rowe and goalkeeping coach Ryan Thorpe filling the other roles.

Hatch comes into the club after former co-managers Ollie Cherrett and Wayne Smith resigned when the club decided against applying for promotion to the Southern League.

The FA invited Christchurch to apply for promotion as the Wessex Premier side with the highest points-per-game ratio over the previous two years.

Former Christchurch player Hatch, who also played for Poole Town, Wimborne Town, Ringwood Town and Downton, has already started preparations for the upcoming season.

The club recently announced the signings of right-back Pepe Smith and midfielder Ethan Maddocks from Verwood Town, centre-half Harvey Elsom from Lymington Town, central midfielder Matt Steer and left-winger Sam Chilman from Hamworthy United and left-back Mac Raney from Bournemouth FC.
