The Team Management

Sue is a south londoner; Sue is a Charlton supporter ! !

Mo Sloane
Mo is the coach. He has a level 1 coaching certificate and is also our first aider.
He is the one who does all the hard work with the team on the training pitch.
Thanks mainly to his son Tom, he has become a loyal Westham supporter. (under the same roof as a Charlton supporter? ooooh!)

A little bit of History
The team was formed in 1999 because a couple called Moe and Sue Sloane had 3 sons, they were called Josh, Ollie and Tom.
Tom and Ollie were becoming upset as Josh played for a Larkfield league side and he kept coming home with trophies.
Ollie and Tom wanted the chance to play football, so Moe and Sue formed,(with the guidance of the late Ian Greenland), a team that was especially for boys and girls with special needs/learning difficulties so as to give them the chance to play football. The team found that it generated a lot of interest in the Larkfield and Ditton area and more players soon joined.
Thanks to the parents
A bit about some of the important people…. The parents, without them our team would find it difficult to get to their fixtures. Thanks to them our team has games at Feltham, Brighton, Erith Horsham and v.i. training at Charlton Athletic and Arsenal.
A thank you from the players...it is appreciated.
