The club is also changing its strip to all white in place of "The Green Machine" of Bexhill Town and the "Karma Chameleons" (red, gold and green) of AAC.

The club is calling for players of the 1958 County First Division winning side to contact them.

Playing under the name of Bexhill Town Athletic, the team was widely regarded as one of the strongest in the local area.

However, the club split into Bexhill Town and Bexhill Athletic Club in the 1970s.

Now the club has come full circle, Bexhill United wish to honour the 1958 champions on the opening day of the County League season. Contact Dave on 212099.
