Newhaven FC is delighted to announce that Sean Breach has rejoined the club as Men’s First Team Manager and returns to the dugout at the Trafalgar Ground ahead of the 2025/26 season.

After stepping down as joint manager alongside Andy Cook in January this year, Breach will this time go it alone as Cook takes on a Head of Football role at the club, overseeing the running of the Men’s and Women’s senior teams.

Two of the men who took charge for the remaining four months of last season – a period which saw us record nine straight league wins – will join Breach in the dugout, as Clive Blunt makes the move to the First Team permanent as Breach’s number two, with Ryan Walton also supporting as assistant.

Blunt leaves his roles as manager of both the Under-18s and league-winning Under-23s, with new managers already announced for both teams.

There will also be a new role at the club for Conor Sidwell as he makes the step from playing to coaching, alongside new Under-23 manager Mike Baker who will help with games and training where possible.

Graham Roe and Dan Breach will continue in their roles as Goalkeeper Coaches, with Vicki McFarlane returning for a second season at the club as Physiotherapist.

We will have more from Breach over the coming weeks as he prepares to take the Dockers in to the new season. We will also announce our exciting pre-season lineup soon.

Martin Garry, Club Chairman
