Adam Howarth’s men will be looking to take three points on Saturday to get their season up and running after an opening day draw against Springhead AFC.
About Heyside

Through the support of dedicated people volunteering their own time, the club has grown and developed to become Heyside FC.
As an FA Charter Standard Club affiliated by Manchester FA, we are now present in 8 Leagues with over 50 teams including boys, girls, and open age, being a major contributor to supporting the local community with grassroots and amateur football.
