History

Isthmian League Chairman and President Alan Turvey was among the FA's "150 Grassroots Heroes" who were presented in 2013, during the 150-year celebrations of the Football Association, with a specially minted medal by Prince William.[2] In June 2015, Turvey stepped down from the League after nearly 60 years involvement with football.[1] The Isthmian trophy cup was renamed in his honour.
