Tribute to Reg Spicer
Many of you will remember our former Chairman, Reg Spicer, who sadly lost his battle with leukaemia in December 2023. Though he is no longer with us, Reg's spirit remains deeply woven into the fabric of Tonbridge Junior Football Club, and we remember him with immense gratitude and affection.
Reg's contribution to TJFC was nothing short of extraordinary. Serving as Chairman and Treasurer for over 30 years, he devoted his time, passion and unwavering commitment to creating footballing opportunities for children in our community. In the late 1990s, as the club expanded with the introduction of mini soccer, Reg played a pivotal role in securing better facilities. At the time, matches were scattered across multiple venues. Determined to bring football back to Tonbridge, Reg — alongside Brian Tippett — approached the Tonbridge Sports Association, and their persistence brought the club home to the Racecourse.
