Ashton Athletic are a club based in Ashton-in-Makerfield in the Wigan Borough and play in the North West Counties Premier Division. Last season the yellows were in top form but sadly the season got cut short. Ashton Athletic are a special club, a club that have lots of volunteers that keeps them running, a brilliant set of players and coaching staff and an enthusiastic set of supporters.
When you enter Brocstedes Park you are greeted by all of these kind and helpful people. The volunteers work extremely hard to make sure games are fulfilled and every supporter, home and away, have a very pleasant experience.
The coaching staff, Dougie Pitts and Jason Foulds have done a remarkable job with the yellows and this is reflected by the quality on the pitch. The Chairman, Jimmy Whyte is truly a remarkable man, he loves Ashton Athletic with his heart and soul.
The fans are vital at Ashton Athletic, we truly have a great set of supporters who are very friendly and as well as everyone else associated with the club, have took me under their wings. I’d like to give a special mention to the Nash family for their great support every week, home and away! You’ll always hear them signing and they love to have a laugh. At a time like this, were a team local to the yellows, Wigan Athletic, are on the brink on liquidation, Ashton Athletic will be extremely vital in the community and they will give many Football supporters something to do on a Saturday.
If you are local, and have nothing to do when fans are allowed back into grounds, I would highly recommend giving Ashton Athletic a try! If you enjoy it you could even join me and plenty of other great people and help out at the club! I’d also like to give a special mention to: Dougie, Jay and Jimmy for the lifts to away games, Bill Bohannon and Chris Picton for being great to work with at the front of the ground, Brad Reid for being an absolutely great person, Clare Reid, Amanda Dixon, Lisa Daniels and Karen Picton for being so generous every match day, the Nash's for being absolutely brilliant and all of the players for being absolutely brilliant with me all season
