About the club
Ash Gold FC is Mount Juliet’s UPSL club — purple and gold for Wilson County, competing in the KY-TN conference.
Why AshGold
The club was founded in 2026 in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, to put a UPSL side on the map between Nashville and the rest of the KY-TN corridor. We play in the United Premier Soccer League, with Ash Gold FC in Premier and Ash Gold FC II in Division 1.
The crest is the statement: a purple shield, gold mountains, and crossed pickaxes. Gold is the standard we train to. That identity also nods to the Ghanaian football culture in this club — from the coaching staff to the first names on the roster. This is a Tennessee club with a global football language.
Home matches are staged at Rockvale High School. Away days take us across Tennessee and the conference: Cleveland, Murfreesboro, Franklin, Jonesborough, and Nashville. Supporters from Mount Juliet, Wilson County, and the greater Nashville area are the twelfth player.
Develop
Give local and international talent a serious pathway — high standards on the grass, clear roles off it.
Belong
Build a club Mount Juliet can claim. Matchdays, youth, and a shop that puts purple and gold on the street.
