Coaching Continuity — Steve Crompton Stays on with First Team & U21's

Bala Town FC is delighted to confirm that experienced coach Steve Crompton will

remain an integral part of the Lakesiders’ first-team staff for the 2025/26 season —

while also taking on an expanded role within the club’s exciting U21 programme.

A well-respected figure in Welsh football, Crompton brings a wealth of experience to

Maes Tegid from both his playing and coaching career. He began life in the

professional game as an outstanding attacking player with Wolverhampton

Wanderers — an experience that shaped his understanding of the game and built

the resilience that has marked his long career in football.

Following his time in the Football League, Crompton enjoyed a strong non-league

career across Wales and the Northwest, before moving into coaching. He served as

assistant manager with Bala’s first team, before going on to manage both Ruthin

Town and Corwen — gaining further insight into all levels of the game.

Since returning to the Lakesiders, Crompton has been an invaluable member of the

first-team coaching team — offering calm leadership, tactical expertise, and an

exceptional understanding of player development. Now, in addition to his first-team

role, he will work more closely with the U21's to help guide and mentor the club’s

next generation of talent.

First-Team Manager Steve Fisher commented:

“I’m really pleased that Steve is continuing with us. His experience — as a player,

manager, and coach — brings so much value to the club. He’s been a key part of our

first-team environment and will now also play a big role in developing the younger

players coming through. We’re very fortunate to have him.”

U21 Head Coach Nick Jones added:

“I can’t think of a better person to support the U21 group. Steve’s knowledge of the

game is unbelievable. He will be a huge asset for individual player development

within the U21s. We’re lucky to have someone of his calibre supporting us — I can’t

wait to be back in the dugout with him.”

Crompton’s continued involvement underlines Bala Town’s commitment to building

for both the present and the future — with strong leadership across all areas of the

club.
