Matlock Town Football Club can proudly unveil its leadership team for the 2026/27 season.
Manager Ricky Ravenhill has appointed Jo Cummings as club captain, with Joe Leesley named as vice-captain, as the Gladiators prepare to embark on an exciting new campaign.
Both players have consistently demonstrated the commitment, professionalism and character that embody everything this football club stands for. Their leadership, determination and drive will be instrumental in setting the standards as Matlock Town looks ahead to the challenges of the season.
Supporting Jo and Joe will be a leadership group made up of experienced senior figures alongside some of the club’s brightest emerging talents, creating a strong collective dedicated to driving standards, inspiring the dressing room and leading by example both on and off the pitch.
These appointments represent more than titles—they represent responsibility, ambition and the values that will define the Gladiators throughout the 2026/27 season.
Congratulations to Jo Cummings and Joe Leesley on their respective appointments.
Now, the countdown is over. Tomorrow, the journey begins. Together, they lead. Together, we march into a brand-new season. Up the Gladiators!
