Club celebrates hat-trick of football coaching badges
10:49am Tuesday 30th May 2006 in
A CHILDREN'S football club set up a year ago now has three coaches with Football Association qualifications.
Hexley Rangers Football Club, which trains at Downsview Community Primary School, Beech Avenue, Swanley, was formed last May.
Coaches Paul Thomas, Dan Fenwick and Tony Powell achieved their FA Level One qualification on May 20.
The course covered child safety, emergency first aid and a series of practical footballing skills.
Hexley Rangers began with two 11-a-side teams aged under 11 and under 12, with an under-8s mini-soccer team introduced in November last year.
Club secretary Carol Thomas said: "As a club it is good to have qualified people to show good practice."
