KINGSTON, Jamaica — Aubyn Henry has concluded his tenure as chief commercial officer of Dunbeholden Football Club (FC) in the Jamaica Premier League (JPL) and will now take on a key national role as chief strategy and development officer at the Jamaica Table Tennis Association (JTTA).

The move marks a strategic shift from professional football to national sports development, as Henry brings his expertise in leadership, strategic planning and commercial growth to Jamaica’s governing body for table tennis.

His appointment comes at a time when the association is focused on expanding participation, strengthening organisational structures and raising the profile of the sport both locally and internationally.

During his time at Dunbeholden FC, Henry was instrumental in advancing the club’s commercial operations and enhancing brand visibility, leaving a lasting impact on the organisation.

Commenting on the appointment in a statement on Wednesday, President of the Jamaica Table Tennis Association, Ingrid Graham, said: “This appointment brings critical experience in strategic leadership and commercial development to the Jamaica Table Tennis Association. Aubyn Henry’s leadership strengthens the association’s ability to build long-term programmes and improve organisational structures.”

“More opportunities will be created for athletes at all levels, while the profile of table tennis across Jamaica will continue to grow. By focusing on development, strategy and innovation, his guidance will help position the sport for sustained success nationally and internationally. This marks an important step toward ensuring table tennis continues to thrive and reaches its full potential,” she continued.

Henry’s move reflects a broader trend of cross-disciplinary leadership in Jamaican sports, where experienced administrators leverage their skills to enhance multiple sporting codes. His transition is widely seen as a positive step toward elevating table tennis, strengthening its governance, and expanding its reach across the island.
