From 20th September Newham Panthers FC will be part of Hackney League. Their mission is to unite communities while providing young people of Newham with the opportunity to value each other via football. 

The league will challenge its young people and give them the opportunity to observe the benefits of being part of a child-centred team that focuses on mental, physical, social and emotional areas of development:. The training programme is designed to put the mental health of young people first and ensures they are physically well prepared to face challenges of adulthood. They engage in mini coaching sessions alongside one to one mentoring designed to support young people in a stress free environment.
