We would like to thank Jack Webb for everything he contributed to AFDA Leicester during the 2025/26 season.

A former AFDA student himself, Jack returned to the academy to complete a year-long placement as part of his Sports Coaching degree at Bournemouth University. It was fantastic to see him come full circle, developing as a coach while supporting the next generation of AFDA players.

During his time with us, Jack represented the academy on two tours to Barcelona, completed his FA Level 1 and Talent Identification qualifications, and continued working towards his UEFA C Licence.

Jack now returns to Bournemouth University for the final year of his degree, and we wish him every success for the future.

Once part of AFDA, always part of AFDA. ๐Ÿ’™
