After Ed Poulter and Fred Milln stepped down from the captaincy at the end of last season, Yunus Sert and Fred Richardson have been elected Captain and Vice Captain respectively. The duo will look to lead the side back to the Premier Division at the first time of asking while, in turn, establishing a core of players to compete at the higher level.

Yunus's outstanding attendance record over the last couple of seasons will set the tone for his players in the coming months. Having played in all three OHAFC Saturday teams, Yunus expressed his appreciation of a Club mentality at the AGM in June. Emphasis will be put on the need for a consistent side which will breed togetherness.

After collecting the Charles Clover Brown Award at the Hurlingham Dinner in February, Fred returns to the Vice Captain post once again after stints from 2010-2012 and 2013-2015. Fred will provide vital support for Yunus both behind the scenes and with his experience on the pitch.

The Club wishes both players every success for the 2017/18 season and beyond.
