In a strategic move to revitalize its football program, St George’s College (STGC) has announced the landmark appointment of Andrew Price, a revered alumnus and decorated coach, as its new Technical Director. This appointment represents a significant homecoming for Price, a two-time ‘Triple Champion’ for the institution’s ‘Light Blues’ team.
Set to commence his tenure on April 1, 2026, following the closure of the ongoing schoolboy football season, Price will provide comprehensive leadership across all tiers of the STGC football ecosystem. His mandate encompasses the Under-14 and Under-16 squads, extending to the flagship Manning Cup team. A primary objective is to institute a cohesive and unified playing philosophy while championing the holistic development of student-athletes.
The school’s principal, Margaret Campbell, publicly expressed enthusiasm regarding the appointment. Campbell characterized the decision as a strategic initiative designed to positively influence youth development. She articulated high expectations for Price’s leadership in synchronizing training methodologies and cultivating an entrenched culture of excellence in both athletic and academic pursuits.
Price arrives with an illustrious portfolio boasting over three decades of success spanning school, premier club, and international football coaching. His most recent role was as head coach of the Calabar High School football program. His contributions to Jamaican football have been nationally recognized with the prestigious Order of Distinction (OD).
Reflecting on his return to the North Street institution, Price described the opportunity as a ‘profound honour.’ He outlined an ambitious vision centered on the implementation of a detailed 3-5 year development plan. This strategy aims not only to restore St George’s College to the apex of competitive schoolboy football but also to focus on mentoring emerging talent, shaping them into well-rounded student-athletes and committed patriots.
