September this year, Nick attended the South London Special League’s (SLSL) annual Summer Tournament.

SLSL is a unique project that offers opportunities for disabled children throughout South London to use sport to improve their lives, increase fitness, raise their self esteem and heighten their aspirations. The summer football tournament league brings together children with disabilities to enable them to compete at each age, gender and ability level for an annual cup. 

The league was set up in 2004. Since this date some 900+ boys and girls have experienced the fun of playing football. The project has been managed since its inception by Sharon Brokenshire and has received a variety of awards and funding from the Football Foundation that demonstrates the commitment of the management committee.

Nick says: ‘It was a great honour to present these young people with their medals and awards. It is always a pleasure to attend such a wonderful event’.
