Are you the owner of Waterloo Football Club?
Arnold Reynolds here, just wanted to share a little about Waterloo Football Club with our cherished sports community ⚽️.
Waterloo FC, nestled in the heart of London, is all about giving every child a chance to shine outside school through sport and community engagement. Focusing on the Lambeth and Southwark boroughs, the club's mission is to nurture young talent and foster an inclusive and supportive environment.
Arnold Reynolds co-founded Waterloo FC in 1997 with some local parents. They’ve been a non-profit social enterprise since 2001, earning an FA Charter Standard along the way. The vision has always been clear: level the playing field for young people, no matter their circumstances.
Through sport, Waterloo FC provides top-notch programmes that encourage physical activity, health, and well-being. The club blends sports with education and mentoring, opening doors to new opportunities and boosting aspirations.
With over 5000 kids and young people benefitting from its programmes, Waterloo FC has made a real difference. Whether it's gaining qualifications, volunteering, landing jobs, or chasing a career in sports, the club’s impact is clear.
One unique aspect of Waterloo FC is its mix of estate-based and mainstream football. Arnold and his team make sure everyone, whatever their background, gets to enjoy the beautiful game. Their dedication to technical training also helps players develop not just their skills, but a genuine love for football.
Brian Dickens from the North Lambeth and North Southwark Community Action Zone has often praised the club’s ethos. Local mentors like Arnold and his coaching team have been game-changers for the community. Parents, too, have noticed big improvements—not just in how their kids play, but in their focus and discipline on and off the pitch.
Waterloo FC has grown into a respected community cornerstone, known for its success in football and positive socio-economic impact. Arnold's dedication to creating a nurturing environment has earned the trust and respect of all involved.
