Impressions from last season

The U8 Lightning Coaching Team

Andy Crompton, Manager

Andy has played football from a young age and carried on playing with the army throughout his army career which took him to both Afghanistan and Iraq. He loves the game and as a coach, seeing the smiles on the children’s faces makes his day.

Jamie Mant, Coach

Jamie has been playing football since he was knee height to a grasshopper! He has always been a Goalkeeper and it is a real passion for him the ‘art of Goalkeeping’ together with the game being played for the sheer enjoyment and the togetherness of a team! 

"Now I am coaching I  will make sure the players enjoy the beautiful game, improve their skills and respect themselves, their teammates and all around them."
