Sparks and Cope part company

Pitching In Isthmian South Central side South Park have announced the departure of boss Tom Cope.

The club released a short statement yesterday:

'The club would like to place on record its thanks to Tom for his commitment and hard work during his tenure as first team manager. Last season was the most successful in the clubs history, finishing ninth in the league, reaching the Third Round of the FA Trophy- the furthest the club has ever been- and winning the Surrey Senior Cup for the first time in the clubs history.

The club wish Tom every success in the future.' 

The Sparks are currently in nineteenth place after a rather slow start to the season which has brought only two victories. 

Tom was appointed first team boss in December 2022, after a spell as Assistant under Harrison Williams- with whom he also worked at Redhill.
