The 3rd team achieved promotion from Division 2 to Division 1 of the North Down Winter league. The real success story belongs to the new 4th team. Managed by Joe Crowe the 4th team finished 3rd only beaten on goal difference in their first season. A very young squad playing up against seasoned players and clubs. The up coming season 2024/25 is looking very positive for all teams and new male or female players young and old are always welcome to Holywood Football Club.
