PRE-SEASON FRIENDLY UPDATE – 3RD AUGUST 2024

posted in: First Team News, News | 0

We would like to update our supporters of the planned pre-season friendly against Farsley Celtic on Saturday 3 August.

Due to an event that was booked in at the stadium some time ago for this weekend and some unexpected logistical changes we’ve tried to work with Farsley Celtic to move the kick-off to 5pm. Unfortunately, this doesn’t suit them which has left us with no alternative but to postpone the fixture.

We will now be travelling to Leicestershire to face Hinckley LRFC in what will be a very competitive fixture with the league season just one week away. Kick Off is at 1:30pm, and address is Leicester Road Stadium, Leicester LE10 3DR.

Further information to follow.

LUKE HOGG IS LATEST ADDITION TO AVENUE SQUAD!

posted in: First Team News, News | 0

We can today confirm the signing of Defensive Midfielder Luke Hogg, who joins the Club on a deal until the end of the 24/25 season.

Luke made 41 appearances last season, playing for Stocksbridge Park Steels, where he scored once.

He started out in Doncaster, spending 9 years with the Rovers before joining Guiseley at the age of 16.

While with Guiseley, Hogg was Academy player of the season in 2017, before signing the following season with the first team.

He has spent the last 7 years gaining experience with the likes of Guiseley, Ossett United, Whitby Town, Frickley Athletic, North Ferriby, and Doncaster Rovers.

On the signing, First Team Head Coach Danny Whitaker had this to say;

“Excellent signing really pleased to get Luke onboard, he’s got valuable experience at this level & above

“He’s a combative midfielder who can add another dimension to the team but someone who is also very comfortable on the ball”

Sporting Director Thomas McStravick also added;

“We are delighted to welcome Luke on board. Another player who is hungry and wants success.

“He is here for the right reasons and will compliment how we want to play. He plays with his heart on his sleeve.

“We obviously aren’t finished our recruitment yet as we look to build a strong, competitive team to excite our supporters for next season.”
