HENRY NUGENT

This is Henry Nugent. Henry was a team mate of our's. He tragicly lost his life in an accident in August 2008 aged just 9 years old.

Henry was a very popular member with all the boys and was very committed to this team. He was one of six boy's who were the first members of Coldean Colts Football Club.

Whenever Henry played football, he always gave 100% and would never pull out of a tackle which earned him the nickname 'Cruncher'. Alot of our players and parents also new Henry from Coldean Primary School where he was a pupil.

To show our respects to Henry, the club have decided to not use the number '8' in the team which Henry played.

We all miss Henry very very much and always will, but he will never be forgotten, and will always remain deep in our thoughts and our hearts.

Young footballers paid tribute to a nine-year-old former teammate who died in a road accident.

The Under 10 team at Coldean Colts Youth Football Club unveiled a football shirt shaped plaque on Saturday with the name and number 8 worn by Henry Nugent.

The youngster, from Coldean, died after he was hit by a car in Chalky Road, Portslade, in July.

His teammates revealed the tribute at Coldean Primary School in Selham Drive, Brighton.
