Harrogate Town to go full-time

National League North

Harrogate Town manager Simon Weaver and his team are going full-time

Harrogate Town have announced plans to become a full-time team from next season.

Harrogate believe this is the best way of progressing in a league which already has at least one professional club.

Managing director Garry Plant said: “This is a big decision for all of us. We understand the impact that moving to full-time will have on players, staff and supporters but ultimately we believe it to be the best course of action at this moment.

“We knew we would have to step up at some point in the near future, and with the club now progressing in almost every department, 2017/2018 felt like a natural point to make the move. This is a major signal of intent as we welcome a new era for both our football club and for the wider community of Harrogate.”
