Pre-season training for the LCFA started on July 1st, and the players have worked very hard throughout the summer. Highlights of the pre-season fixtures were going to Fulham FC's training ground and performing very capably to secure a 1-1 draw against the Premiership outfit's U17 side. Fulham's academy director was very impressed with the standard of play from the college and admitted that we were unlucky not to win the game. The Lewisham goal came from Louie Theophanous and there was also an outstanding performance from Hadyn Ankle.
Amongst other notable fixtures, pre-season finished with a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspurs' foundation side (U19), again both goals from Louie Theophanous.
Of the new players coming in to the academy there are a number who have impressed early on. Ones to watch include centre mid Akeem Miller and centre forward Mohamed Diakite.
Dan Thomas, Head Coach
