2. The Clubs Formation

The Clubs` Formation -1997

A football mad parent in the summer of 1997 decided to try and start a junior football team for his young sons to play in. He felt that a football team would give the children of Aspull an interest and also keep them out of trouble. The name of that parent was Steve Fishwick.

The response from Aspull was amazing, and at the start of that first season there were 12 children of various ages attending training sessions, but this number was growing weekly.

Our 1st sponsor, Jim Parr of Parr Brothers Electrical enabled us to purchase a kit and some equipment, and Aspull Rugby Union Club agreed to let Steve play their matches on their practice pitch. Thus the name and club ASPULL JUNIORS FC was born.
