Lewes
Community
“ There is much to admire about the fine set up that Lewes Community FC currently has in place and this is thanks to all of the hard work that has gone into making them a success .”
“ Working towards this objective has enabled positive partnerships to develop with local schools and colleges , youth organisations , local and county councils and organisations including Sussex Police .”
The club also runs an U18 side to provide young players from the local area with an opportunity to develop their skills in a safe and enjoyable environment . It is important for any club to be able to produce their own talent and this is an area they appear to have covered .
In order to help these players to make a smooth transition into the senior game they also run a development side . This allows them to gain further experience even if they are not yet considered ready for first team action which can be an important step in the development process .
There is much to admire about the fine set up that Lewes Community FC currently has in place and this is thanks to all of the hard work that has gone into making them a success . Hopefully they will be able to continue in the same manner for many years to come .
