Ben Hunter Appointed as Head Coach

The President and Board of Directors of St Martins AC are delighted to announce that Ben Hunter has been appointed as Head Coach of the Priaulx side.

After speaking with a number of candidates, we firmly believe Ben is the right fit for the role. His commitment to the club, his strong relationships with the players, and his coaching experience make him the ideal choice.

Ben has coached alongside both Leon Meakin and John Peace during our most successful seasons, so he brings valuable continuity and a deep understanding of the team’s style and strengths.

Ben Hunter said:

I remain fully committed to this group. Having coached at this club for over 20 years and taken charge of Priaulx games myself, I’m confident in my ability to support and help this squad thrive and grow.

I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Leon and John through years of shared success. My strength lies in managing people, and I aim to bring that leadership to this team. I’ll also be calling on others to assist with support where needed.

Ben will be assisted by Sam Ashplant, and we look forward to the next chapter with this group.
