| 25 Jun - An Open Letter to Dave Kitching Boroughbridge AFC Chair, Ian Paffett, has published the below open letter to Club stalwart Dave Kitching as he retires from his role following decades of dedicated service in 'Bridge blue. Dear Dave, I believe your years of dedication and service to Boroughbridge AFC deserve more than the standard thank you letter on behalf of the club from the club secretary. I therefore, have taken it upon myself to write to you personally. Without people like you that have lived and breathed the club for so many years it is difficult to imagine how the club could possibly be where it is today. This isn’t just about success on the field, although we strive very hard for that, but also the feeling of belonging, camaraderie and just feeling part of something very special. We like to see ourselves as a family and we are very good at looking out for other family members. You have been over many years, a huge part of that as a player, vice captain, captain, committee man, vice chairman and latterly groundsman amongst many other things. Probably more than all of that though a great Club Man. You have represented the club we all love in an exemplary manner and I’m sure you will continue to do so. The younger ones among us might not know that justifiably you take great pride in being the first Boroughbridge AFC Captain to lift aloft the then hugely prestigious Whitworth Cup. I know that you are looking forward to watching the next generation begin their time in Royal Blue and I hope you enjoy doing and you see them continue the success we have enjoyed so far. Travelling round the clubs in our leagues does make us all appreciate what we have at Boroughbridge and without you and other likeminded people we wouldn’t have the things we do. Sometimes we all take it for granted and forget that what we have has had to be worked very hard to achieve and needs continued effort just to maintain, let alone improve even further, you have been a huge part of the team that has made that happen. On a personal note I would also like to thank you for all you have done and for being such a great constant over my years with the club, always there year in year out, come rain or shine offering advice and thoughts (especially to those wearing black). We have shared some great successes and also some savage disappointments both have required us to share a beer or two to either celebrate or commiserate. I hope we can celebrate again soon. Finally, in these odd times we can’t share a beer currently but I hope that situation doesn’t last for too much longer. Mr Kitching I thank you. |

13 Apr - Matt Coles Passes Out with Navy Many congratulations from all at Boroughbridge AFC to Matt Coles who is celebrating having Passed Out with the Royal Navy. Matt was a regular at the Club and Captained the Reserve side for a period.
He joined the Navy on 27th January and during his ten-week basic military training hiked and camped on Dartmoor, did damage control exercises, military fitness, drill and much more. He was made Class Leader of Port Class and over the ten weeks there were ten competitions against Starboard Class and Matt led his team to an eight two victory. This meant that on his Passing Out Parade on Friday 3rd April he collected the Ganges trophy on behalf of his class. He is now awaiting the start of his Phase 2 training, which has been put on hold due to Covid-19. Congratulations to Matt on his achievements and the Club wish him every success with his new pathway. |

| 9 Apr - Mike Aveson The 'Bridge Football Family wish to send their sincere condolences to the family of Mike Aveson who passed away recently following a heart operation. Mike was Manager of the Midland (HSBC) Bank in Boroughbridge but will mostly be remembered by those with an interest in sport as an integral driving force behind the "magnificent seven" and the concept of Boroughbridge Sports Association. He was the Treasurer and with the support of his family was heavily involved in fundraising, with the Pram Race and Half Marathon both proving to be great initiatives. Mike was also a keen supporter of the Football Club, enjoying their successes of the 80s and 90s. He moved with his wife several years ago to be near family in Northampton but still kept on eye on results at the club. Your support will always be appreciated. Rest in peace. |

5 Feb - Charity Game Remembers TA Boroughbridge AFC recently lost one of its family members following the sudden passing of Tony Allen, who died from a heart attack despite the best efforts of Yorkshire Air Ambulance and hospital staff. A recent charity match gave all at the Club an opportunity to remember Tony whilst raising £400 in aid of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
Tony, better known as TA, was born in Stockton-on-Tees and spent his early working life in the Royal Air Force, moving to North Yorkshire in the early eighties where he was employed in the logistics department at Linton-on Ouse as a civilian. Have bike will travel was how he introduced himself to the Club and his first night at training was enough to tell us that what he lacked in pace was compensated by an abundance of technical skill and flair. The early eighties and the two decades following was one of the most successful periods in the Club's history and TA was an integral part of that era enjoying a myriad of success in the Harrogate, Claro and York Leagues and York and Harrogate District FAs. TA hung up his playing boots in 2001 to take on the role of Assistant Manager alongside Daz Ekin and in their inaugural year in the West Yorkshire League guided the team to the Division One title and Divisional Cup. His enthusiasm for the sport and the development of younger players brought him back into the game and he spent a few seasons playing with 'Bridge 'A' and following his son, Carl. Even when his interest in the playing side waned he would still be seen on the touchline expressing his views and never afraid to tell it as he saw. The charity fixture was a spontaneous gesture to TA and once muted it went ahead within seven days with players from past and present, young and old participating. A tribute to a great guy who will be missed by us all with the monies raised donated to Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Image with thanks to Yorkshire Air Ambulance |

6 Nov - Unsung Hero Ekin Honoured Boroughbridge AFC Manager and Vice-Chairman Daz Ekin was last week honoured with the highly acclaimed Boroughbridge & Ripon Unsung Hero Award at the Harrogate & District Council Volunteers Awards.
Ekin has been a stalwart of the Club for approaching five decades and in his time has lifted countless pieces of silverware as both player and manager as well as working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure every member of the football family at the Club has the opportunity to play the game. Arriving at the Club in 1975 as a raw 17 year-old he quickly made his way through the ranks, scoring a hat-trick on his first team debut. Daz’s contribution did not end there as he went on to Captain the team and was not only heavily involved on a Saturday but as Player-Manager in the Claro Sunday League. Success at the Club had been intermittent over previous decades but in the early eighties and the two decades that followed Daz was at the heart of one of the most successful periods in the Club’s history as either player or Manager. Teams enjoyed a myriad of success in the Harrogate, Claro and York Leagues and the Harrogate and York District FA’s and suddenly this little known Club from out in the sticks began to etch out a name for itself. Twice, in the early nineties they reached the County Challenge Cup Final, only to be beaten on both occasions, but their perseverance, now with Daz at the helm, paid off in the 1994/95 season with a two one victory. This was repeated the following season with, arguably, the pinnacle of his achievements being victory in the North Counties Senior Cup Competition. There is more to Daz, however, than his football achievements and since he joined the committee in the early eighties he has been at the forefront of making the Club one of the most respected in the area. He has been involved in some excellent sponsorship packages, organising fundraising nights (his Christmas Quiz to raise funds for the Kid’s Christmas Party and Race Nights to name but two), he helps out with the ground when necessary and any building projects you will find Daz on the frontline. His commitment is second to none and he has been one of the lead personnel of maintaining standards in the Club both on and off the field. To put in the unpaid hours takes a special person: Daz fits that bill and thoroughly deserves the “Unsung Hero Award”. Congratulations Daz, and thank you, from all in the ‘Bridge football family both past and present. |

A Gabriel Bradley goal and a brace from Phil Briscombe together with a Man of the Match performance from defender Jamie Stewart was enough to seal the points.

26 Aug - Many Happy Returns Gaffer A very many happy returns from all at Boroughbridge AFC to Club Manager and Vice-Chair, Daz Ekin, who celebrates three score years today.

His record is phenomenal as a player and a Manager with success in the Harrogate, Claro Sunday, York Leper Hare and the West Yorkshire Leagues and arguably the pinnacle of his success was winning the West Riding County Challenge Cup two years running, together with the Northern Counties Senior Cup competition. Daz was a goal scorer and a playmaker with a myriad of trophies to back this up. Sixty years today and happy birthday from all at the Club! |
