7. Progression Continues - 2002/03


The start of the 2002/03 Season saw our first venture into Open Age football. It wa felt at the time that it would enable our future Under 16`s an opportunity to continue playing football for Aspull Juniors FC.

We ran teams from U`7 to U`10 at Mini Soccer level and from U`11 to U`14 at Youth Soccer.

Our popular Under 6 Academy continued to flourish in the capable hands of Tony McGarr.

This season was to be our most succesful in a our short history winning 8 different League and Cup titles across all age groups.

Aspull Civic Centre started to be used regularly by our teams on a Sunday to provide refreshments and hospitality to both our own teams and our visitors.

The pitches at Aspull Moor received considerable attention this season with the Club giving the Leisure & Culture trust a sizeable amount to improve conditions.

A meeting by the Club Committee later in the season and the first discussion on the FA Charter Standard. Gary Hopkins now Club Development Officer was entrusted to find out the details!
