New First Team Coach Appointed
Manager Luke Tuffs has made his first coaching staff appointment for the 2023/24 season, with Michael Campbell joining us as First Team Coach.
Michael has worked with Tuffs previously, and since he finished playing has looked to move on to the coaching side. We are excited to have Michael on board, and very much look forward to meeting up at the RPS very soon!
Further annoucements on Luke’s coaching staff, and players, will follow in due course. Watch this space!
Following confirmation of his appointment Michael had the following to say on joining the club:
Since I have stopped playing, I have kept in heavy contact with a lot of players/coaches, never losing the buzz for the game. I have always wanted to get into coaching, but knew that finding the correct person to go down that route with was very important. I have worked with Luke when I was a player in the past with 2 different clubs. And more recently, have enjoyed watching his journey through to management. We have always communicated well, for good and 'bad' things as such - so we both felt me having experience with playing in this league would be a great and will enable us to work well together... After speaking to Luke about the project ahead - I am so excited to see how far we can take Ashford, and I cannot wait to get started!
