The London Olympians are based at Crystal Palace NSC in South London. The programme was established in 1983 and has enjoyed success in developing young men for the senior team who have also represented the GB Lions, USA Colleges, Team Europe, NFLE and NFL. Players have also gone on to working with the emergency services, the financial sector and many other major institutions.
With recent developments within the club we are now in a position to recruit, to help develop even younger athletes.
We are looking for highly motivated individuals who are prepared to help young people develop an all rounded positive attitude and ability to strive. Experience is not necessary only a desire to be a student of the game, the patience to grow into a mentor and a leader to the next generation.
All positions are on a volunteer basis only. The club will help you with the resources we have at hand and you will benefit from the experience of our established coaches. The London Olympians support and encourage membership of BAFCA.
The club is also looking to recruit administration/game day staff to join our existing team. Again we hold our operations people in high regard, they are very much involved in our development and are encouraged to bring new ideas to the forefront.
All interested parties should contact us at info@olympiansfootball.org
