Maccabi London Lions have stolen a march on their MGBSFL rivals ahead of the new season by appointing former Premier League star Mikele Leigertwood as their coach.
Having played in the Championship for Reading last year, Leigertwood is now undertaking his coaching badges and is benefitting from some practical experience helping Lions’ young Sunday team while he learns his new trade.
Leigertwood was informed of the vacant role by former Lions player Sam Sloma.
He said: “I started my playing career at grass roots, so it makes sense to do the same now I am working on my coaching career."
