The Fleetdown United Mini Soccer teams have benefited from a generous donation in memory of Mr. Kevin Rocke of Ballycorkey, Ballynacargy, Westmeath in Eire, who died suddenly in October 2008.

Kevin (36) was also a resident in Dartford for some of his life and was the uncle to 4 young footballers, all of whom have played for Fleetdown United and 3 of them still do. Connor plays for the Under 14s, Niall for the Under 12s and Liam is in the Under 9s. Callum previously played at Fleetdown, and now plays for Ebbsfleet United.

Mr & Mrs K Rocke, who are Kevin's parents, wanted the Mini Soccer teams to benefit as Kevin was always very enthusiastic about Grass Roots football. The donation has been used by Fleetdown United to buy new footballs and other equipment for the mini soccer teams.

Everyone at Fleetdown would like to express their thanks to Mr. & Mrs. Rocke for these generous donation in memory of their Kevin.
