'Mr Storrington'! Nigel is now entering his 21st season with the Club as either a player or as part of the Management Team. Nigel played for West Chiltington and Storrington at Youth level and then spent a long playing career with Storrington, representing Sussex at Intermediate level. After a successful season guiding the Reserves to a Runner-Up spot in the League and a Reserve Section Cup winners medal in 2005/2006, Nigel has been involved with the First Team ever since.

James Blaydon - First Team Coach

Alan Skipper - Reserve Team Manager

After a flourishing Youth Football career with the likes of Burgess Hill, Shoreham, Brighton Boys and the Sussex Representative side, Alan's playing career was brought to a sudden halt after a serious knee injury. Alan got back into football once his son had signed for Lancing and was asked to run Lancing FC's Youth Team set-up. After a successful campaign at Lancing last season, Alan has been invited to run Storrington FC's Reserve Team for the upcoming season and will no doubt be an invaluable addition to the Management Team.
