Millwall FC first-team duo Joel Coleman and Caleb Taylor visited Lewisham College today as part of Millwall Community Trust’s Post-16 Football & Education Academy.
Millwall Community Trust offers a unique opportunity for passionate 16 – 18-year-olds football players, both male and female, to pursue a 2-year Football & Education Scholarship - this course is run at Lewisham College as well as other educational sites.
Also in attendance throughout the afternoon was Millwall Community Trust’s Football & Sports Development Officer Nick Farrell.
The duo started the visit by taking part in a Q&A with the participants on the programme where they got to ask questions they’ve always wanted to know the answers to.
Following on from this, the players presented the school with a framed Millwall shirt.
To finish off what had been a great afternoon, the children posed for photographs with the duo.
Nick Farrell, MCT’s Football & Sports Development Officer said: “What an unbelievable afternoon for the participants at Lewisham College today.
“The impact these sorts of sessions can have on participants is massive and thank you to Joel Coleman and Caleb Taylor for coming down and inspiring the next generation."
