Hawks Bradbury Wins National League South Managerial Award For March

He’s loving every minute at the moment, but Bradbury won’t have fond memories of his previous experience in the National League South.

The last time he was here it ended in a way he would much rather forget as play-off hopes ended in relegation.

But Havant & Waterlooville stuck by their man. A year later, they won the Ryman Premier and ten months on the Hawks are absolutely flying back in the division which treated them so badly back in 2016.

In their six games in March they let in just two goals and won four matches - the big one being away to Bath City but success against Wealdstone, Weston-super-Mare and at an in-form Oxford City can’t be underestimated.

Now the big question is if Bradbury can take the team up to the fifth tier for the first time in the Hawks’ long history.
