Rooney takes National League North manager of the month for August

August's individual honours were handed out across the pyramid this week.

The Isthmian League's August awards were spread around. Ronnie Dolan of Hastings United was named Manager of the Month, and Dan Moody of South Park (Reigate) won Goal of the Month for his strike against Crowborough Athletic.

What gave the week its shape, though, was the number of longer-service milestones sitting alongside the monthly trinkets. Marcus Bowers reached his 100th win as manager of Great Wakering Rovers. Moody, as it happens, made his 200th appearance for South Park (Reigate) the same week, having debuted in November 2015, left in 2018 and rejoined in February 2025. Alan Adams became the latest member of the Maidenhead Town Centurions Club, with 16 Man of the Match awards and nine goals since his 2018 debut, and Keith Powell was added as the 13th name in the hall of fame at Longwell Green Sports.

Recognition went beyond the pitch too. Erith Town presented vice-chair Marc Petters with the Clubman of the Year award for his work last season, and Sevenoaks Town assistant manager Liam Joyce has been selected for the England Football and FA Mentee Development Programme.

Among the club-level votes, Toby Holmes was named Weymouth's Player of the Month with Mitch Beardmore taking Goal of the Month for his effort against Shepton Mallet Town; Seweryn Streczen won the inaugural Flan O'Briens trophy at Bath City; Harvey Laidlaw was chosen at Havant & Waterlooville; and Jamie Austin's five goals in seven games earned him the award at Dearne & District. Josh Madeley took 52 per cent of the vote at Whitchurch Alport, while Elliott Bolton's strike against Evesham won 80 per cent at Hanworth Villa. Khayrie Harris, Olly Evans, Hussein Issa and Praise Ogbebor were honoured at Phoenix Sports, Chatham Town, Potters Bar Town and Hashtag United respectively.
