Chris Ramsdale

I would like to nominate Chris for his work in his local community as a football coach and work related to the local football team of Over Sports colts. Chris has been a trainer with the team for approximately 10 years and has been on the committee for the last 4 years. with the team it involved coaching the boys once a week for training sessions and matches in the local league.

Chris has undertaken coaching courses and referee courses to help the football team and spent an hour a week minimum training the boys for the last ten years in the football season and for 6 of those years he has had matches on a Sunday morning with the team in all areas of the county of Cambridge which generally took all morning and until early afternoon. this included ferrying the boys back and forward who could not get lifts with their parents.

Chris has helped enormously within the local football team and the boys came out of playing matches a year ago but they still wanted to carry on the training with Chris and the other coach once a week as they all say they enjoy it so much. Within the surrounding villages other boys who go to school with the team boys are asking if they can join in the weekly training sessions as they enjoy it so much. This has now caused a waiting list!
