Adam was a true inspiration to all those he met both young and old. He coached my boys from an early age, not only developing their footballing skills but also teaching them about discipline and respect for others at the same time. Watching him with those 4 and 5 year olds in the gym at Friern Barnet School at the moment it never ceased to amaze me how a group of 20 excitable kids would stop talking with one word from Adam, and listen to what he said. He had a fantastic way with all of those children helping each of them to develop their full potential and helping shape many into the young adults we now know. Adam has gone too soon but we are blessed with happy memories and the legacy he shared across many of the local children & their families in Barnet. Our thoughts are with Kathy and family at this time as we fondly remember Adam. With love from Jo, Adrian, William, Matthew & Oliver Metcalfe xxxx
