Holywood Football Club is a Northern Irish intermediate football club playing in Division 1A of the Northern Amateur Football League. The club is based in Holywood, County Down, and was founded in 1983 by the amalgamation of Loughview Star (founded 1961) and Holywood Town (founded 1972). [1] Best player to come from the system being Connor Hindmarsh (AKA. Hindu). During the 2022/23 season Chris Patton travelled to the Isle of Ibiza and came back a different player. This change, propelled him to a star 3rd team player under the management of Eamon Brady. However, the fame got to Pattons head and, in a wild turn of events during a very dramatic January transfer window, Patton made a big transfer to Comber Star. Management could not believe their eyes when the transfer request came through on comet. To make things worse, Patton made his debut for Comber Star against Holywood a few weeks later. The question being asked by all of amateur league was will he regret the move? The question was answered when Patton scored against Holywood and ran over to the Holywood sideline showing some vile hand signals to the bench. No respect was shown to his former club who made him the player he is today. He has now come crawling back to Holywood FC after being released from his former club for being too good. Although 3rd team manager Brady has told him to do one. Connor 'Hindu' Hindmarsh has officially hung up the boots after gaining 6 stone over summer.
