Our FREE Football Sessions Help Local Children - Lewis' Story
Lewis has been attending our FREE Kicks Football Programme for just over a year. He's met new people he would not usually socialise with and his attitude and behaviour, on and off the pitch, has improved.
As a result of this positive change Lewis has represented AFC Wimbledon at local football tournaments, including the Crystal Palace Kicks tournament and two held here at Plough Lane.
Lewis is an extremely motivated young man who aspires to reach his goal of being a professional footballer.
