History
The club takes its name from Senrab Street in Stepney; the club's players trained at Marion Richardson School on Senrab Street (which is close to Barnes Street, and is 'Barnes' spelt backwards).[2]
The club was founded in 1961 by then 15-year-old Jimmy Tindall (later a youth development officer for West Ham United),[3] playing eight-a-side at first before progressing to 11-a-side within two years. Tindall's son, Jason was a 1990s product of Senrab, playing in midfield with Lee Bowyer before later moving to AFC Bournemouth.[3] The club had three 11-a-side teams to begin with, all playing in the Regent's Park League.[4] Tindall's recruitment policy was to pick up only the best young players, stipulating that to play for Senrab, a player must have previously played for his district or county.[4] In the early 1970s, so many Senrab players signed for Chelsea that former player Ray Lewington nicknamed Senrab "Chelsea Juniors".[4]
In 2014 Senrab were shortlisted for the Daily Mirror Pride of Sport Awards in the Local Team of the Year Category.
Operation
Senrab operates 15 teams for age groups ranging from 5 to 17 years old.[2] The club has produced a great number of players who have gone on to have successful professional careers, including Sol Campbell,[5] Jermain Defoe, Ledley King and John Terry.[1][6][7]
A number of professional coaches have also started out at Senrab, most notably Dario Gradi,[1] who, until June 2007, was the longest-serving football manager in the Football League. In April 2011, former Senrab player John Terry donated an undisclosed sum to the club to keep it running.[8]
The following players and coaches have all gone on to play for or coach a professional football club after leaving Senrab FC.
