10 Year Holland Anniversary!

How time really flies! It is 10years since we set off on our Holland adventure to compete in the Easter Open. The only school in the competition, we finished an amazing runners up losing just one game in the whole tournament.

So much has happened in the years since. Players have gone on to play professionally, start families and begin careers. We have also sadly lost a member of our amazing team and we think about Derrick everyday and send our best wishes to his mum and family.

The time working at Gedling remains one of the happiest times of my life and that is down to the brilliant staff but largely the fantastic students. I was then and still am so proud of all of you. A wonderful group of people who it was my privilege to work with.

I hope to see you all again soon and feel free to reach out here to let me know how you are getting on.

Best wishes

Chris

Derrick Otim

Absolutely devastated to hear the very sad news of the passing of former Gedling School student Derrick Otim. I had the enormous pleasure of teaching Derrick for four years at Gedling and found him to be an outstanding student, footballer and more importantly human being.

I will never forget your effort, commitment and more importantly your personality and huge smile.

Mine and Tara’s thoughts are with you and your family at this very upsetting time.

Hello everyone, I hope this post finds you and your families safe and well. These are very strange and difficult times for many people so I hope you are all taking good care of yourselves.

8 years have past since we visited the Easter Open 2012. This remains a highlight of my time at Gedling and I was extremely proud of all of you for how well you did in the tournament.

I hope everyone is doing well in your lives and careers and I send my very best wishes to you all.

Stay safe and look after yourselves.
