Last week, the Caridon Eagles took to the field in a spirited match against EWI Pro, ending with a final score of 10-5. While the result didn’t go in our favour, what stood out was the incredible determination, teamwork, and sense of community displayed by our players.
The Caridon Eagles are more than just a football team – they represent the heart of our mission to foster connection, inclusivity, and engagement among our tenants. For several years, Caridon Foundation has been organising these matches, not just as a fun competition but as a platform to promote active living, positive mental health and build a supportive community through sports.
Guided by a professional football coach from Crystal Palace F.C., the Eagles have been training regularly, honing their skills and building confidence both on and off the pitch. These sessions offer more than just athletic improvement – they’re an opportunity for tenants to connect, support one another, and grow as a team.
During the game, the Eagles demonstrated exceptional camaraderie, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to one another. Every player gave their all, embodying the true essence of teamwork. This spirit is what defines the Eagles – it’s not just about the score; it’s about the connections forged and the growth achieved as individuals and as a community.
We are immensely proud of the Eagles for their efforts and for representing the values of the Caridon Foundation with such heart. Thank you to EWI Pro for a fantastic match, and to everyone who participated, cheered, and supported the event.
Let’s keep the momentum going—onwards and upwards, Eagles!
