SAN ANTONIO (May 18, 2023) – Spurs Sports & Entertainment today announced that Tim Holt has decided to depart San Antonio FC, after serving as the organization’s Managing Director since January of 2016. During his tenure in San Antonio, Holt has been instrumental in turning SAFC into one of the most successful teams in the USL Championship.
“It’s impossible to overstate Tim Holt’s impact on SAFC and across San Antonio’s soccer community,” said SS&E CEO RC Buford. “We are beyond grateful for his efforts, vision and contributions. As a values-based leader, Tim inspires all of us with his knowledge and approach.”
San Antonio was awarded a USL franchise in January of 2016 and Holt was the organization’s second hire. SAFC has made three-straight trips to the USL playoffs. The club captured five trophies over the course of the 2022 season, including the 2022 USL Championship, defeating Louisville City FC 3-1 in the title game in front of 8,534 fans at Toyota Field on November 13, 2022.
“I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with SAFC, which made this a very difficult decision,” said Holt. “Our fans, our players, our coaches, our staff and our community have all contributed to making SAFC a truly special soccer club. From day one in San Antonio, I received tremendous support from SS&E leadership and being part of the organization will forever be a career highlight. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished to date and am confident that the organization will continue to thrive in the future.”
To help the franchise through the transition period, Holt, who’s last day in a full-time role will be June 5, has agreed to serve as a strategic advisor for SAFC through the end of the 2023 season.
