Nike has partnered with rising England star Jadon Sancho to build a new football pitch in South East London. The new Jadon Sancho Nike pitch also gives us the first-ever look at the new official Jadon Sancho JS logo.

Sancho was raised in South East London. He hopes his story will inspire others in the the local community.

“Growing up in Kennington has made me the man I am today; I owe a lot to South London for nurturing the way I play," Sancho says. "I hope the local kids feel empowered to tell their own stories through football and follow in my footsteps — this pitch being just the ignition point."

The new pitch will be the home of the Lambeth Tigers, a football club for young people aged 6 to 18, the pitch will provide the local footballers of SE11 access to the best facilities possible.

Over 200 kids have played on the pitch during its opening week, with Sancho dropping into a few games himself.

The club was founded by two football coaches who grew up on a nearby estate, David Marriott and Jamahl Jarrett. “There’s a real need for safe places for these kids to play in,” says Jarrett. “A pitch like this is like a sanctuary for kids, encouraging them to get into football in a safe environment. The cool, bright design is also like a magnet — it’s a place where people will want to get out and play.”
