It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of John Kennedy, a beloved former coach of the Ammies, who sadly left us this morning. John's influence on the football community, both at the Ammies and in the broader Wythenshawe area, was profound. His dedication, passion, and commitment to the sport made him a revered figure, not just as a coach but as a mentor and friend to many.
John's coaching career spanned several decades, during which he molded numerous teams and helped countless young athletes develop their skills, confidence, and love for the game. His impact extended far beyond the pitch; he was a guiding force who
instilled values of teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship in all those he coached. Many who played under his guidance remember him not only for his tactical acumen but for his ability to inspire and uplift, turning challenges into opportunities for growth.
Beyond the Ammies, John was a familiar face across Wythenshawe, where he devoted much of his time to coaching and mentoring. His influence reached far and wide, touching the lives of players, fellow coaches, and the broader community.
John had an exceptional ability to connect with people, understanding their potential and helping them achieve it, both on and off the field.
The news of John's passing has sent ripples of sorrow through the community. He was more than a coach; he was a pillar of strength, a source of wisdom, and a friend to many.
His absence will be deeply felt, but his legacy will endure in the countless lives he touched and the memories of those who had the privilege of knowing him.
Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences go out to John’s family during this difficult time. As we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the extraordinary life he lived and the indelible mark he left on our community. John Kennedy will be sadly missed, but his spirit will continue to inspire and guide us all.
