FIRST TEAM MANAGEMENT

I mentioned last week that I have invited Burton Albion FC to officially open our floodlights and I am still awaiting to hear back from them so will keep you updated as we hear anything but keep checking the website and local press and social media.

As a club we are exploring the opportunity to establish our own apprenticeship programme for boys aged 16-18 and this will involve them being full time at the club and combining a BTEC Diploma in Sports Studies along with full time coaching at the club. The discussions are ongoing with various educational providers and the players will use the facilities at the club for both their education off the field and coaching on the field. This initiative will further enhance the clubs structure and provide a real opportunity for boys who want to progress in football but with a strong emphasis on education and a qualification that will serve them well in future employment opportunities. The programme is intended to start in September and applications will be opened out as soon as we have a definite acceptance of all the necessary criteria, so be sure to keep your eyes open if you have a son, nephew or family friend that may wish to apply.

If you or anyone you know would like to “sponsor a seat” in the new stand then do let me know as soon as you can as places will go very quickly as we have already received quite a bit of interest. Remember you have 2 options available – Lifetime Sponsor and Club Ivanhoe and both will have your name etched in the clubs history.

FIRST TEAM UPDATE I would like to welcome the players and officials of Blaby & Whetstone Athletic FC. The previous meeting away at Blaby was a very difficult encounter. Ashby started the game well; we applied a lot of pressure on Blaby’s defenders in the early periods of the game. However, unfortunately, Blaby dealt with our early attacks and they went on to win the game scoring both their goals through fortuitous circumstances. I believe today’s game will be an exciting encounter.

Reflecting on the last two league fixtures, we played for 6 points however we only picked up 1 - we can do better. The game away at Kimberley Miners Welfare was extremely difficult for Ashby as it was like trying to play football in a quagmire. The pitch conditions suited the style of the home team, which made the encounter between the two teams a leveller.

During the first period, Ashby was very wasteful again in front of goals, albeit not one of our strikers had a shot at goal during that time. The second period, Ashby could have been 3-0 down, although the heroics of Hodgey prevented it from happening. Players were changed up front and in midfield to energise the team which enabled Ashby to equalise in the final minutes.

The home fixture against Radcliffe Olympic FC encompasses the story of our season: two mistakes resulting in the opposition scoring 2 goals, which overshadowed some of the good football played in the first half. I had to remind the players at half time of how I expected them to play; worryingly I explained and showed those who attended training on Tuesday (prior to this fixture) what we hadn’t been doing and what I expected from them for the rest of the season. I thought that the second period of the game was our best footballing performance of the season, although it was no consolation to the final score.

ASHBY IVANHOE FC CLUB HISTORY Ashby Ivanhoe Football Club was founded in 1948 and play their home matches at the NFU Sports Ground, Lower Packington Road, Ashby de la Zouch in Leicestershire. This is the clubs new home from the beginning of the 2012/2013 season. Since being founded in 1948 up until the end of the 2011/2012 season the clubs previous home was at Hood Park also in Ashby de la Zouch.

The club currently consists of three adult teams and a youth team. The first team play in the East Midlands Counties League, with the Reserves in the Leicestershire Senior League Division One. In the 2008/2009 season the club formed a Youth Team (Under 18’s) side who play in the Leicestershire Midweek Floodlit Youth League on Wednesday nights. A Sunday team was re-introduced for the 2012/2013 season and they play in the Burton Sunday League Division Two. The club also has 11 junior sides ranging from Under 9’s through to Under 17’s who play in the Burton Junior Football League, Tamworth Junior Football League and the Derby City League. The junior section came after the club merged with the David Hunt Soccer School at the beginning of the 20092010 season.

In February 2004, Ashby Ivanhoe became an FA Charter Standard football club. The club is very ambitious and has plans to progress further up the league pyramid system. The club is run by an experienced management team and enjoys the support of some very prestigious commercial partners.

Ashby Ivanhoe had one of their most successful seasons in 2010/11 as they completed a league and cup double by winning the Leicestershire Senior League by nine points and also lifted the Coalville Charity Cup for the very first time after producing a superb second half comeback to beat Bardon Hill 3-2 in the final. They have also reached successive Leicestershire Senior Cup finals in 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 but had to settle for runners-up on both occasions losing 3-1, firstly to Ibstock United and then Aylestone Park.

The 2013/2014 season saw the first team achieve a long-term ambition as they won promotion into the Step 6 East Midlands Counties League for the 2014/2015 season after finishing third place in the Leicestershire Senior League. It was a close title race with the top three all finishing level on points with Ashby third on goal difference. The Reserves were also promoted to the Leicestershire Senior League Division One.
