Find out more about our U14's White Coach - Rob Leckie

Next up for our Coaches spotlight is our U14's White Coach, Rob Leckie.

How long have you been with GRYFC: About 9 years, from helping out with mini soccer on a Saturday morning to forming our U7's team who are not U14's with my friend Mike Crane.
Team you support: The only team in Manchester - United!
Favourite player: It's a hard one, we've had so many legends over the years but it has to be 'King Eric' Cantona. I thought he was just the coolest guy when I was growing up, he was ahead of his time.
How did you get into football: My Dad, he always took me to watch non-league Tamworth every weekend growing up. That's where the passion started and it never went away. I still love non-league football and go and watch it as much as possible.
Why GRYFC: I've always felt we're such a welcoming and friendly club, run by a fantastic group of volunteers behind the scenes. Our focus is always on the children enjoying their football, and for me that's a club I want to be associated with.
