Luton Town's Leyah Maddix and Kal Naismith have been crowned PFA Community Champions for their outstanding commitment to the local community. They were recognised for their work in supporting women and girls' participation, mental health, and schools. The duo received their awards from students at Queen Elizabeth School, one of the Trust's partner schools. They took part in a school PE lesson, coaching a side in a football match, and then took part in a Q&A session where students asked questions about pursuing their ambitions, overcoming setbacks, and their experiences in football. Throughout the season, Leyah has supported the Trust's work around women and girls' participation, violence against women and girls, and mental health, helping to raise awareness and break down barriers. Kal has supported programmes focused on mental health and schools, while also helping to celebrate Premier League Kicks participant Tristan, who was chosen as Luton Town's Community Captain following significant improvements in his confidence and self-esteem since taking part in Premier League Kicks sessions as part of the Premier League's More Than A Game campaign. Bert Klemmer, Programmes Manager (Education, Employability & Learning) at Luton Town Community Trust, said: 'We are delighted to name Leyah and Kal as our 2025/26 PFA Community Champions in recognition of their outstanding contribution to community work throughout the season across our local communities.' Queen Elizabeth School plays a key role in the Trust's community work, hosting a range of programmes including the Post-16 Football & Education Programme, Premier League Kicks, Premier League Inspires and holiday camps. These initiatives provide young people with opportunities to combine football with education, develop important life skills, access mentoring and personal development support, and engage in positive activities that help them realise their potential.
