About Killamarsh Dynamos

---

 Killamarsh Dynamos was formed in 1981 by Jim Towns and Ray Godber. Originally there were two teams, Under 10s and Under 12s. The Under 10s were managed by Ray and the Under 12s by Jim. During the late eighties more age groups were added until eventually there were teams from Under 10s to Under 16s. 

The nineties saw the introduction of firstly an Under 9s team and eventually an Under 8s team as the lower age groups of the junior leagues became more and more popular.  

In 2002 Killamarsh Dynamos achieved the FA Charter Standard which was followed by the Charter Standard Development Award.  This means that we promote the positive values involved in football participation, ensuring a high standard in playing, watching and coaching.

We now have a full complement of age groups ranging from our youngest teams at Under 7s to our oldest team at Under 18s. In the last few years, we have also added girls only teams to our groups as the popularity of girls only football grows and strengthens.

Many of the children playing in those first teams now have children of their own who play for current Dynamo’s teams – second generation Dynamos!

In the year 2000 a soccer school was established which has gone from strength to strength. Catering for children as young as four, this offers an excellent method of introducing young boys and girls to the basic techniques involved in football, it promotes team spirit and develops the social skills required in general life.

This is achieved in an informal environment where the emphasis is on letting the youngsters have fun!

We also had the honour of coaching the amazing Millie Bright who joined Killamarsh Dynamo's at the age of 9.  She is a true role model to the children at the club and after the success of the England's Women Team in the 2022 Euro's, our Girls Open Sessions were formed! Our NEXT future Lionesses'!
