Aaron Sutcliffe 27th Jun, 2025 Updated: 27th Jun, 2025   0

EVESHAM United manager Mike Ford has provided a squad update as the Robins prepare to play at Step Three next season.

Ford guided the club to a first promotion to Step Three in 13 years last term following a 1-0 victory against Malvern Town in the Southern League Division One South play-off final.

The club have already confirmed two new signings ahead of the 2025/26 campaign with Ioan Richards and Ethan Dunbar both joining the club.

Robins boss Ford has confirmed the majority of the promoted squad will remain with the club next season although Michael O’Regan has opted to depart.

Ford said: “I wanted to share a quick update regarding the squad as we prepare for the upcoming season.

“Recruitment has been a bit of a challenge this time around.




“While progress has been slower than we’d hoped, we’re continuing to work hard behind the scenes to strengthen the team.

“On a positive note, we’re pleased to confirm that the current group of players have all committed to the club – showing great loyalty and belief in what we’re building.


“We’re also delighted to welcome two new additions – Ioan Richards and Ethan Dunbar.

“Both are fantastic individuals who will bring quality and character to the group, and we’re excited to see the impact they’ll make.

“However, we will also be saying goodbye to one of our own.

“Michael O’Regan has made the decision to move on and take the next step in his football journey.

“While we’re naturally sad to see him go, we’re incredibly proud of everything he’s achieved here.

“Michael has been nothing short of brilliant for this football club.

“He’s earned his stripes, led by example, and given everything for the badge.

“He’ll be missed by teammates, staff, and supporters alike – but he leaves with our full support and best wishes for the future.”
