Jaydon Coombs-Goodfellow (PPE, 2022) is this year’s Football Sabbatical Officer. In this interview with Oxford University, Jaydon talks about his early football days in West London to his time on Oxford’s pitches, and shares what the sport means to him and how you can get involved — whether you’re a seasoned player or just starting out.

Jaydon describes Wadham's footballers as 'a very welcoming team who would always have fun in the pitch and strive to play for each other. The highlight of my experience with the team was making it to Cuppers Final in my final year where we were able to play at Oxford City FC’s stadium and despite coming up short in the game it was a memory I will forever hold.'
