Back to where I used to play as a kid, Thoi Lakatamias is a 2nd Division club with amazing youth and stadium facilities that many 1st division clubs are jealous of. As the Under 16s team we competed in the Pancyprian Championship against 1st Division teams with a very high level.

Took over the team as Under 13s with 8 players and we were playing versus 11-player-teams. Managed to bring in new players and started the next season with 29 players. Moving up with the boys to the Under 14s team, we competed in a 11-team league and managed to finish 3rd. The team and individual improvement has been huge.
