Ben has been Manager for the Adult Senior Athletic team since 2019. His efficiency and organisation in team administration has justly been recognised by WESFA, receiving the award above 90 other Team Secretaries.

Upon receiving his award, Ben had the following to say: “Surprised but honoured to pick up this award. It has been tough, but so glad now that we all kept going as a team through the hard times. Our second win of this award as a side. Followed in the footsteps of Geraint Jones and learnt from the best “

In a first for Junior Reds FC we held a Club promotion stand on the main shopping pedestrian way at Bexleyheath on Saturday 16th July.

There was lots of interest and many people stopped for a chat and to wish the Club well. We expect to recruit a few additional players and even one or two Coaches from our promotional event.

This is just one of a series of promotional events being held over the Summer period.

A new additional team (to be named Junior Reds Warriors) is being formed this summer in the Under 12 age group (School Year 7 in September)

The team is being formed thanks to the energy of Lee Stewart, Manager of Junior Reds Knights (U12). Lee explained “We have received a large number of enquiries for players to join an Under 12 team. Most of our teams are full so this is an appropriate time, if possible, to give playing opportunities for these players without teams.”

We do crucially, however, require a Team Manager. Full support will be given and the team will play out of Coldharbour Leisure Centre at the same venue as Lee’s Under 12 Knights team. If anyone can help please contact Lee via Club Secretary Clive Chivers on 07504 264 157.
