Scott Rendell
first team manager
Scott has now been appointed permanent first team manager after a succesful spell as interim.
As a player, top-scoring Scott's 28 league goals fired AFC Totton to the Southern League Div.1 South title in 2022/23 and earned him the division's Golden Boot award, tied with Liam Prynn of Tavistock AFC.
He also scored two first-half goals, the first of them a penalty, in the SDFA Southampton Senior Cup Final at St. Mary's Stadium in May 2023, to spearhead The Stags' impressive 3-0 victory over fierce local rivals Sholing on their way to retaining the trophy they had won at the same venue the previous season.
Voted Players' Player of the Year 2022/23, Scott also coaches the club’s PRO:DIRECT Academy. As part of the work he does outside the club, he guided a youth team to a Bronze Medal at the prestigious Gothia Cup youth tournament in Gothenburg, Sweden shortly before the start of the 2023/24 campaign. This year in the 2025/26 season, Scott’s academy team won the league and were crowned champions!
Scott's two goals in the 5-1 win at Bracknell Town in the Southern League Premier Division South on 21 October 2023 took his AFC Totton tally to 50 goals since his arrival in the summer of 2022.
