Ashford give Reds the blues
The Men’s First Team won 2-1 at Harrow Borough on Saturday, extending their unbeaten run in away fixtures to three matches.

Harrow Borough next for Men’s First Team
Saturday sees the Men’s First Team continue their Pitching In Isthmian League campaign with a trip to Harrow Borough.

Will the Tangerines pip the Oranges this Saturday?
This weekend, the Men’s First Team take on Hartley Wintney at the Robert Parker Stadium.

The Men’s First Team drew 2-2 with Littlehampton Town despite being reduced to ten players in the 38th minute after Reuben Collins was shown a second yellow card.

Ashford ready to host Littlehampton
The Men’s First Team make a welcome return to League action this Saturday when Littlehampton Town are the visitors to the Robert Parker Stadium.

Ashford prepare to travel to The Den
The Women’s First Team take on the iconic Millwall Lionesses this weekend and will do so at a special venue: The Den.
