2007 F.A. Charter Standard Community Club Of The Year
Waveney
Youth F.C. were officially recognised as one of the top Club’s
in the Country when Club Development Officer, Mark Gamble,
received the 2007 F.A. National Charter Standard Community Club
of the year award on behalf of the Club during the recent
England v. Estonia Euro 2008 qualifier at Wembley Stadium on
Sat. 13th October.
The official
presentation was made during the 2007 F.A. Charter Standard
Awards Ceremony at The Castle Hotel in Windsor by the National
Club Development Manager, Les Howie. The 5 Club and 7 Schools
winners were then congratulated during a pitch-side ceremony in
the halftime interval during the England International by Sir
Trevor Brooking (pictured left) and fellow officials from the
Football Association, which was cheered by a number of players,
parents and supporters from the Club who made the trip to
Wembley with a coach leaving from Barnards Meadow.
Mark said that the whole day was a fantastic experience with the
opportunity to walk out onto the Wembley turf in front of
thousands of people topping a wonderful day.
Waveney Youth F.C. has been recognised by the Football
Association for their high standards which the Club prides
itself on at a grass roots level and we have set ourselves the
benchmark to improve on a lot of good work as we look to a
bright and exciting future for not only the local children who
join the Club weekly but also to the adult teams, with plans to
join
the Anglian Combination League in the near future which will
give our current youth players an opportunity to meet their
ambitions and play adult football at a higher level.
As well as
the Club’s committee, managers/coaches,
players, parents and supporters for helping
to achieve the highest accolade in Junior
football, we would also like to thank Phil
Woolnough from Suffolk County F.A., Darren
Lawrence, F.A. Regional manager and Jamie
Houchen for all the support the Club has
received from The Football Association since
it joined the Charter Standard scheme in
2003.
