Call up

Posted on

VLUK Leon Barnett learner, Kwesi Sackey, has been called up to Cranfield United (Step 6 of the non league pyramid) 1st team squad that competes in Spartan South Midlands Division 1. Kwesi has excelled in campus fixtures showing emerging leader qualities from his centre back position, along with his ability to read the game and handle the football. Kwesi’s debut happened on Boxing Day with a clash against local rivals Ampthill Town FC - resulting in 2-0 win in front of 300 supporters.

Our Leon Barnett campus has a close link with Cranfield United and have, this year, seen the learners compete as CUFC’s Under 18 in the Southern Counties Floodlit. This allows a clear pathway for learners to move into mens football.
