It is with deep sadness that we inform the West Park family of the loss of one of our own, Asher Tumwijukye. Our condolences go to Asher’s family at this painful time. A goalkeeper with our 2004’s team from 2019 - 2021, a young man taken far too soon.
West Park Utd FC teams will be holding a minutes silence before games this weekend as a mark of respect for former goalkeeper Asher Tumwijukye, who tragically died last week. Our hearts go out to Asher's family at this difficult time.
An open letter to all candidates standing in the Bishopbriggs North, South & North Glasgow local elections this week. The importance of participation in sport is well documented for our young people, however the access and affordability is beginning to negatively affect our club.
We are grateful to our opponents & match officials at our matches this weekend who joined us in an impeccably observed minutes silence for our former Player, Asher Tumwijkuye, who was sadly taken from us. We know this simple show of respect will mean so much to Asher’s family.
