Debbie Hewitt is set to become the first female chair of England's Football Association (FA) in the organization's 157-year history.
Hewitt, currently the non-executive chair of Visa Europe, The Restaurant Group plc, BGL Group and White Stuff, was unanimously nominated to the position by the FA Board and will commence in January 2022 once formally ratified by the FA Council. The previous chair, Greg Clarke, resigned last November after using what he acknowledged were "unacceptable words" to British lawmakers.More Related News
