Match Day Collection

We are raising funds to support the Altrincham FC Women’s team for the 2024/2025 season.

 

This season, we made the decision to not charge playing fees for the players to ensure the club mirrored the playing offer at clubs playing at the same level.

 

Any support today will go towards the costs of hiring facilities for training and playing aswell as ensuring the players have the equipment necessary for the season.

 

In 2021 Altrincham FC Ladies changed their name to Altrincham FC Women supported by Altrincham FC Community Sports. The women’s team currently competes in the Cheshire Women’s Premier Division.

 

Over the next few seasons, the club is aiming for promotion while continuing the development of its Player Pathway to provide young players with an opportunity to progress through the teams and establish themselves in the First Team.

 

Fixtures are on Sunday afternoons and the team currently train twice a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays). Spectators are welcome to all games.

Matchday charity

I’m delighted that my club Altrincham FC have been chosen as one of 10 focus matches by Prostate Cancer UK on non league day. The club and community charity, of which I’m a Trustee, have been so supportive of this initiative.

 I was diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer in May 2017 and went from training for an ultra marathon to terminally ill in a matter of days aged just 60. I’d had no idea that I’d had a right to a PSA blood test from age 50. They think my cancer had been developing for 10 years when I was diagnosed and I’d had no symptoms at all. If only I’d had that simple blood test every year from age 50 I’d have been diagnosed early and cured. That’s why awareness is so important and why I’m so delighted to be representing the charity today.

 Please give generously and you’ll find me at the awareness stall in the community sports hall before the match.

The money raised will go directly to our many programmes that support children, young people & adults in Altrincham & South Trafford and help us to keep them accessible for all.

You can sponsor us through the button below.

Charlie is excited to be bringing his Wardle Jnr teammates to celebrate his 8th birthday. He is a football obsessive who always has a ball at his feet or watching it on TV. His favourite Altrincham player is Justin Amaluzor and is looking forward to sharing the Alty experience with his friends.

A belated Happy 10th Birthday to Harry Walshe, who is here with us today! A Goalkeeper with Egerton FC where our Young Robins play some of their matches, Harry's birthday was actually in November but his celebrations were adjourned when they clashed with an invitation for him to attend a GK camp in Eindhoven led by Hans Segers (of Crazy Gang fame!).  Harry's dedication to his training was rewarded when he won the coaches' prize for best all round performance / attitude over the course of the intensive three day camp.

Harry is currently in the middle of a trial with Manchester City, so we wish him all the very best of luck with that.  We'll be sure to keep an eye out for his name in the future!"

Altrincham FC V AFC Fylde - Saturday 16th December 2023

Match Day Charity

All money raised through today’s collection will go towards funding our many programmes and enable us to continue the amazing work we do in Altrincham & South Trafford.

Thankyou Gail!

The end of the 2022/2023 Altrincham FC Women season brought to an end a fantastic career for Midfielder and Community Coach Gail Simpson Scott.

Gail has played for Altrincham FC Women since 2012 and has been a main stay in the midfield throughout and provided consistent and dedicated service to the various coaches and managers that have took charge of the team.

Gail’s involvement in the team didn’t stop once the games had finished, she was always a constant source of support, inspiration and motivation for both team mates and coaching staff.

Former Altrincham FC Women Manager Nick Pearce was full of praise for Gail and her dedication.

“During my time working with Gail I found her professionalism and commitment to Altrincham Football Club inspiring and rewarding as she showed total commitment to her team mates and the football club. She was always willing to give feedback and opinion and this help to ensure the players felt represented and listened too. She played a key role in helping to rebuild a depleted squad and always gave 100% during training and games. It was great having her involved and she always wanted to do the best for the team even if it was a the expense of herself. Gail was also a strong advocate for mental health and sports psychology as she always looked to provide her team-mates with the mindfulness and mental well being. This sort of support amongst the playing and coaching staff was invaluable and I know we would not have managed to build such a strong team cohesion if it wasn’t for Gail’s continued support. My favourite memory of working with Gail also included when we organised a legends game to raise money and remember one of the previous Altrincham Women players who had passed away. Gail managed to use her influence to assemble a group of players who had represented the club over many years to raise money for Mental Health Charity “Mind”. The number of players who returned to represent the club in this game was overwhelming and just showed was respect she commanded from all she had played with”

Team Captain Bliss Molyneaux was keen to pay tribute to Gail “They say home is a person. This springs to mind when thinking of Gail, you know you’re safe and well looked after with her around. The club and girls are beyond blessed to have her by their side”

Gail will be sorely missed by all the players and coaching staff at Altrincham FC, although she is still a passionate supporter of the team from the sidelines and will still ensure standards are kept to the required standard in her capacity as a fan.

Altrincham FC v Solihull Moors Saturday 25th November 2023

Match Day Charity

Don’t Walk Past is a self-funded community group which was started nearly 5 years ago after the group's founder Ronnie saw a homeless man wet through sat in a wheelchair in Manchester and thought this can't be right.  He went out alone and starting feeding & clothing the homeless at night.

 The group has grown and we now have teams going out 5 nights a week, Monday to Friday with hot and cold food and drinks, essentials like sleeping bags, blankets, clothes and toiletries.

 The teams drive round the streets of Manchester looking for rough sleepers in doorways making sure they’re fed, have clean warm clothing and are signposted if necessary to further support.  There’s always food for anyone else that needs it when they come to see us in St. Peter’s Square or Piccadilly Gardens.

 The team have helped some very vulnerable people get shelter for the night and contacted services to engage with them.

 We also support some of our homeless friends when they are placed in temporary accommodation.  They often find themselves in a room with a bed but no means of making a drink or food, or even washing clothes, meaning they still come to see us.

 We’re always on the hunt for good clean condition, men’s and women’s warm waterproof coats, joggers, hoodies and trainers.  Sleeping bags (no pillows or duvets), blankets and 2 man pop up tents are essentials.

 We’re on Facebook and Instagram so please follow us, search “Don’t Walk Past”

 We can collect any donations or you can drop off with us (collection box also in reception)

 If you think you can help or support us in anyway, please let us know.

 There’s an Amazon Wishlist for essentials and also a Pay Pal account (links on the Facebook and Insta pages)

 We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at the match on Saturday 25th November to raise some funds for us to carry on helping

Match Day Birthday Party

Our Match Day Party today is Finn who was 8 in June and has been desperate to celebrate his birthday at the Mighty Alty!
