Sian Is A Robin

Ashton United FC has announced the appointment of Sian Binks as Head of Women’s and Girls Football.

A former Liverpool, Wigan Athletic and Leeds United Women’s player Sian is a UEFA B qualified coach with experience of setting up and running women’s and girl’s football programmes.
