Heacham Football Club have mutually agreed to part ways with manager Mark Hunter after a challenging start to the 2026-27 Eastern Counties League Premier Division season. The Magpies secured only one victory in their first 12 matches, leaving them positioned second from the bottom of the league standings.

The early-season struggles prompted the club to make a change in leadership as they seek to improve results and move away from the relegation zone. Details regarding Hunter’s departure were not disclosed beyond it being a mutual decision.

Heacham now face the task of appointing a new manager to guide the team through the remainder of the campaign with the objective of stabilizing their league position. The club's performance so far has raised concerns among supporters and officials alike as they aim to reverse their fortunes in the coming weeks.
