MEET THE TEAM

Conrad Knight

Knight’s incredible shot-stopping ability is not the only asset that he brings to the team. His commanding presence in the box solidifies an assured defence, with his pinpoint distribution starting countless counter-attacks. His tangible talent in goal was proved in a 3-0 win against Ardingly, where Knight picked up a clean sheet and Man-of-the-Match award for his performance.

Toby North

The perfect centre-back partner for Harley Mackenzie, North has utilised his aerial ability in a more attacking manner, scoring five goals during Hampton’s ESFA campaign, including opening the scoring in the all-important semi-final. His height and physical presence add further impetus and rigidity to the backline.

MATTHEW MOFFATT (C)

Captain fantastic and box-to-box midfielder, Moffatt, played a pivotal role in guiding Hampton to the ESFA final through his clear communication and leadership skills. As well as being a great all-round player, Moffatt’s ability to loft set pieces into the box is always available, providing golden opportunities for the towering centre-backs.

KYAN SONI (VC)

Joining Moffatt in central midfield is the team’s vice-captain, Soni. Often compared to N’golo Kante by his teammates thanks to his tenacious work rate and vision of the game, his performances this season have led to him being regarded as one of the team’s star players. Soni and Moffatt form a formidable midfield duo, striking the perfect balance between attacking flair and defensive know-how.

Ben Robinson

A powerful driving force down the right-hand side, Robinson’s pace and physicality give him opportunity aplenty to burst down the flank and get the ball into the box. His clinical finishing in front of goal makes him a thorn in the side of any opposition, often unstoppable when in form.

Adam Coombs

Fan-favourite Coombs has been Hampton’s fox in the box throughout the 2022-23 season. He only cemented himself as a starter in late November, however, the talismanic striker has since proved his worth up front, becoming top scorer, and often popping up with a crucial goal in tight matches. His brace against Forest School in the ESFA semi-final booked Hampton’s ticket to the final.
