Shoreham have named Matt Brace as their new manager in succession to Bryan O’Toole, who stepped down last week to concentrate on playing.

Brace enjoyed a lot of success as Shoreham’s under-18s manager and was assistant to O’Toole for the last half of the season.

Chairman Stuart Slaney said: “We had lots of applications which we felt just did not fit in to our future plan for the club.

"Matt has been with the club for a few years now and has all the background to hit the ground running.

"He had an outstanding year three seasons ago when he won the treble with our county under-18s side.”
