Our first talk at a university!

A huge thank you to for hosting and organising yesterday’s talk on Oxford Phoenix and how to effectively support displaced people through football.

Delighted to see a ‘sell-out’ 50 people in attendance!

Shot expertly by always excellent 📹

It was incredible to see so many there to hear and see what we do, how we do it, and why we do it.

Some brilliant crowd participation exercises and questions from audience as well as honest and thought-provoking answers from our panel including players and .940098.

Following this, we had a mingling session where participants could ask us questions - and some great ideas and potential partnerships could come from this.

Many of the orgininal cohort ended up staying to watch England thump Croatia 4-2 in what was a serene evening focused on the positives of what community has to offer.

Thank you to all those who attended and please email us at [email protected] if you have any questions or any ideas or you would like to donate to the project.

Awards Winners from Awards Night!

💫 Dawit Abe. At just 17, we see so much potential in him. A brilliant goal in the Cup Final rounded off a brilliant first season in men’s football.

▶️ Rohullah Yaghobi. An ever present in 2025/26, and the only player to play every single match this season. Only one yellow card for the and it was harsh!

⬆️ Pedrito Vaz Soares. Talent, potential, and coachability are off the charts and we can’t wait to see how he continues to develop!

🧷 Darian Hassani. The biggest joker at the club and a fairly clear winner when the players voted. Always laughing, always winding people up, always Darian. Never change habibi!

🧡 Ali sums up what Oxford Phoenix stands for. He shows heart and courage every time he trains and every time he plays.

🧤Darian Hassani for his brilliant double penalty save vs Oxford Irish in the Quarter Final of the Cup.

⚽️ Anas Balla. 19 goals in 20 games to win the Golden Boot, including four in the Semi Final of the Cup. An incredible return in his first season of men’s football at just 17 years old.

🫂 Jamal Fadul. Despite playing in a number of positions this season, Jamal always works hard for the team and that is shown by his return of 12 assists.

👨🏽‍✈️Jabir Abdalla. A brilliant captain this season, and after 5 years at the club, he is someone who commands a lot of respect in the changing room. A fantastic player and an even better person.

👨🏻‍🏫 Simon Roberts is an incredibly experienced coach and we are very lucky to have him. He has revolutionised the club with his brilliant sessions and has helped the boys understand their roles allowing us to improve week on week.

🔝Anas Balla. A joy to play with and coach, Anas has been brilliant this season playing in a number of roles. His attitude is fantastic and he has really grown into a leader on the pitch despite his age.

🐦‍🔥Joshua Warburton. Joshua has done so much for the club both on and off the pitch. This award is for someone who has gone above and beyond for Oxford Phoenix.

☄️ Samson Berisa. See final slide! A simply incredible first league goal for us from such a talented young man!

Well done to all our award winners!

RESULT.

We end the season with an away defeat to the league champions.

We can take many positives from the performance as we created some brilliant chances in the first half, and perhaps on another day, we would’ve been leading at half time.

Unfortunately that wasn’t the case as showed why they are where they are with some clinical finishing when opportunities presented themselves.

was a rock at the back, and we have seen so much improvement in his game over the past few months. He was at the heart of everything good for Phoenix and we look forward to continue seeing him develop.

Another highlight for Phoenix was Alpha Breezy Kamara’s third goal for the club in his second game as he latched onto a long ball before finishing expertly past the onrushing keeper.

⚽️ Alpha Breezy Kamara

Player of the match 🏅

Well done for a brilliant season, good luck next season! 💪

Huge thank you to everyone who has supported us this season. With a bit more experience gained, we look forward to pushing on next season 🧡
