Bobby Kasanga founded Hackney Wick Football Club in 2015; Hackney’s first ever semi professional football club in nearly a century.

It is not your regular football club, its  ethos is based on community engagement, uniting the local diverse groups as well as battling peer pressure and tackling gang influences. It is a community club whose members and players volunteer their services for free to the Hackney community. Be it providing free football coaching or helping out at various events our members come along and support. We will offer training, employment and community projects which promote health and well-being alongside community safety.
