The Football League has appointed Debbie Jevans, the former London 2012 Olympic executive who is now head of the 2015 Rugby World Cup organising committee, as a new independent board member.
The former tennis professional said: “This is an exciting opportunity to join the board of the Football League and make a contribution to the governance and direction of football — a sport I have followed, as a fan, for many years.”
She joins chairman Greg Clarke and Richard Bowker as independent directors but she is not the league’s first female board member — former Tranmere director Lorraine Rogers was on the board for many years.
