The Staff

Ian Batten 
Manager

SPONSORED BY B&B ESTATES

This is Ian’s 3rd full season as a manager (joint with his brother George). He captained Sheppey United as a player, so in a sense he is now managing his home town. 

Ian won manager of the month in November. 
 

George Batten 
CHAIRMAN/Player Manager

SPONSORED BY JUDE BATTEN

George is chairman of the club, but also player manager, who sits in front of the back four. He has bundles of experience having played over 100 games for Sheppey United. 
 

Scott Penfold
ASSISTANT MANAGER

Scott was one of the best youth team players in Kent and was at Chelsea as a boy. He played with Ian when Sheppey United won the Kent league unbeaten and cup at U18 level. 

He has come in as assistant manager this season and hasn’t looked back, a very exciting young coach. 
 

Ben Brennan 
VICE CHAIRMAN/Secretary

SPONSORED BY JI FLOORING

Nicknamed the Mr Encyclopaedia of non league football, Ben is club secretary and vice chairman. 

He is very much an unsung hero at the club and massively popular with the players.  The club could not operate with out his hard work and dedication.
 

 

Hannah Clewes 
Sports Science

Hannah joined the Sports this season. She's a sports analyst who isn’t afraid to let the players know if they aren’t hitting their targets.

She has a big future in the game and is a massive asset to the team.

 

Brandon Loveridge
Sports Therapist

Brandon was with the London City Lionesses last season. He is a local lad that we are very fortunate to have. 

Brandon also works with Sheppey United.
 

Shaun 
GameDay Assistant

Shaun takes on various ad hoc duties around the club. His valuable time and effort allows the coaching staff to focus on preparing the lads for the game.

We'd be stuck without him!

Our photographer that has been getting credit left right and centre for his fantastic work. Malc recently photographed Plymouth Argyle's famous win against Liverpool in the FA Cup. 

We're not sure how many clubs in our division have their own photographer, so we really are lucky to have him.
