A Christmas message from the Chairman

To a Happy Christmas and a Prosperous and Safe New Year

On behalf of the Committee of Ballynahinch United F.C. I wish our managers, players, supporters and sponsor’s a very Happy Christmas and a Prosperous and Safe New Year.

Due to the pandemic 2021 has been just as difficult a year as 2020 as the pandemic has affected almost every facet of life and sadly for some it has taken many loved ones all too soon.

Our sponsors businesses have been badly hit by the lockdowns however when we eventually got back to playing again they continued to support us which is much appreciated. The managers and players returned to action with both teams being extremely competitive giving both officials and supporters alike many good afternoons which has really raised the spirits. Our supporters have come back in good numbers to create a bit of atmosphere at the Millbridge which is great to see.

The club committee has worked tirelessly behind the scenes to improve the facilities and keep the club moving forward while we are most grateful to Jimmy Brown for the endless hours he puts in every week keeping the Millbridge grounds in such good conditions.

As things stand football will recommence on Saturday 8 January 2022 and in the meantime it is my hope that over this holiday period you will all have a great time with your nearest and dearest.

Please remain vigilant in everything you do so as to keep yourself, family and friends safe and well.

Gilbert Cromie

Club Chairman

New Management Announced

Ballynahinch United F.C. is delighted to advise that the new first team manager will be Alan Davis who will be assisted by Paul Allison. Both have been involved with the club’s Youth side for some years and last year stepped up to take on the Swifts team which made excellent strides in Division 1 of the Newcastle League.

The Swifts will be managed by club stalwart Gareth Bingham assisted by Davy Teggarty.

The club would also like to send its best wishes to Jimmy Brown who is currently recovering after knee surgery.
