One of our Jack Petchey “Outstanding Achievers” for February is Sammy Smith – a member of the Under 15s Titans Team.
Team Manager James said, in making the award ” Sammy has been a leader on and off the pitch. He encourages players on the pitch if they are having a bad game by supporting them and they positively respond. He shows maturity by calming any disagreements that arise on the field. Sammy has been an important influential presence for the team all season”.

This group is for girls of Primary School age wishing to learn the basics of football in a friendly and supportive environment.
Our main objective is to give girls greater self confidence in playing football without pressure – all of us learning together.
Ideally – if sufficient interest exists – new girls teams will be formed (Under 7s; 8; 9s; 10s and 11s) from players attending this group.
We are based on the field at Bexleyheath Academy (post code DA6 7DA) on Saturday mornings from 10.00am until 11.00am.
Just come along and join in whenever you and your daughter are available. All are welcome.

Our Jack Petchey Special Achiever for February is Molly Howe – a member of our Under 11s Roses team.
Team Manager Adam said “Molly leads by example on and off the pitch, putting 100% into all training drills and in every minute of every match. The girls in the team look to Molly to show the way in the tough times and that no nonsense and never say die attitude has permeated through the team as infectious determination . The arm around her team-mates shoulder, the encouragement to the team when heads start to drop and seeing all the laughs, jokes and hugs between the team after the match really does demonstrate how the rest of the girls see Molly as a positive influence”.
One of our two Jack Petchey Special Achievers for the month of January is Olly Crook – a member of the Under 13 Athletic.
Team Manager, Chris, said “Since joining the team last season Olly has been an integral part of the team. Olly is committed, loyal, always enthusiastic, hard working and supportive of other players. Olly is respected by all his team mates and parents alike. Olly is a great credit to his team and Junior Reds and we are lucky to have him in the team”.
Over the Christmas period four new Junior Reds teams were formed.
This photo shows one of these new teams – the Under 9 Knights.
Best wishes to the lads and your Management team (John & Barrie). Have an enjoyable and memorable experience as a team and as a member of the Selkent League.

Two of our newest teams played their first games in the Selkent League on the 7th January.
The teams – one called “Spartans” and the other “Titans” – both started their League programme with home matches played at Danson Youth Centre.
Many of these players were once members of our casual based “Saturday Soccer Club”. Joining the League is a major step up for the players into competitive games. They all enjoyed the learning experience.
We are busy forming new “Mini Soccer” teams at Under 7s, Under 9s and
Under 10s level to start in the Selkent League in January.
If interested to be part of these new teams please contact:-

All teams train in the Bexleyheath area on Saturday mornings.
The Club have added to our Schools venues for Saturday training with the use of Saint Columbus School in Bexleyheath.
Club Chairman, Clive, explained “We have received feedback that our teams training at Bexleyheath Academy, Townley Grammar School and Welling Schools require additional space for training purposes on Saturday mornings. We have accordingly moved four teams to Saint Columbus School to reduce pressures elsewhere. The School offers some excellent facilities and is in an ideal location for us in Bexleyheath”.
