Steven Salcedo
Club Chairman / Welfare Officer
Welcome to Panitas Football Club, it is my pleasure and privilege to be Chairman, Club Welfare officer and a coach of what I believe to be a fantastic club at the heart of the local community in West London.
Panitas FC is an England FA Accredited Club, providing football coaching for children from school years 1 to year 8.
The wellbeing, safety, and health of every child is our top focus as a club. Our dedication to provide kids a fun, welcoming environment in which they can learn and develop their football skills under the supervision of our coaches, who are FA qualified and have the appropriate DBS child safety checks and emergency aid qualifications.
We believe that football is a game to be played and enjoyed by everyone and that success at grass roots should not be measured by the number of trophies won, but by the number of children who choose to play the sport, with a sense of belonging and always with a smile, whatever the result. However, football is also a competitive sport and so we will help our players reach the best that their ability allows as an individual and as part of a team.
As Chairman, I feel it is vital that we follow an ethos that ensures the welfare of our children is paramount, that the club is open to all players regardless of gender, race, nationality, ethnic origin, colour, religion, sexual orientation or perceived ability as a footballer. That all players, coaches and parents follow the club code of conduct and also the FA Respect Codes of Conduct and that we do not follow a win at all costs philosophy. We aim to create lifelong participants in the game.
Football is for everyone, lets enjoy it together.
