Sid Lloyd
Founder/Senior Academy Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Senior Coach
・English FA Level 1 Qualified Coach
・English FA Level 2 Qualified Coach
・Holder of FA Certificates in Soccer Parenting & Registered FA ‘Soccer Star’ Coach
・British Football Club Tokyo – Manager / Captain (1994 – 2003)

Sid Lloyd has committed his life to ensuring that the necessary infrastructures are in place to accommodate all who wish to play, learn or support amateur football in Japan. In his role as Managing Director of Footy Japan KK, he is devoted to the challenge of expanding the amateur, international football competition and education network in Japan and around the Asia-Pacific regions. A devout Liverpool FC supporter, the multi-faceted, multi-tasking Sid is as adept at coaching as he is at running a company. For a coach, having a sound knowledge of football’s fundamental skills and techniques is a given – how these are communicated and demonstrated to kids from 3-years old and up is where Sid excels as a coach and leads enthusiastically by example. Sid currently plays for Pumas FC, in the Tokyo Metropolis League’s 3rd Division – a league of semi-professional standard that he instituted and continues to organize. Sid, as a player, has also achieved some notable successes in professional small-sided tournaments in South East Asia. The most remarkable being an impressive victory against an opposition that included: Clive Walker (ex-Chelsea FC), John Barnes (ex-Liverpool FC/England), Gus Cesar (ex-Arsenal) and the iconic Ian Rush (ex-Liverpool FC/Wales).
Dave Callaghan
Head Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Coach
・English FA Level 1 Qualified Coach
・Holder of FA Certificates in Soccer Parenting & Registered FA ‘Soccer Star’ Coach
・Higher National Diploma – Sports Science
・Bachelor of Science – Sports Science
・Ex-Reading FC Youth Player
Magnanimous Dave Callaghan is a whirlwind of energy and probably one of the best-loved coaches at the Academy by the kids, and indeed some of their parents. His youth-team coaching in the UK, coupled with his professional and semi-professional football background – most notably with Reading FC’s prestigious Academy – have certainly stood him in good stead with the myriad of weekly coaching duties Dave undertakes. He has a particular affinity with the younger-aged players and can’t hide the paternal side of his gentle, yet highly audible and quintessentially British character. Dave’s sessions are always, without question, high-octane, clamorous occasions that make you wish you were a kid again – but from a professional point of view there is always a great deal of outstanding (coaching) method in what a lay-person may misinterpret as utter madness. There’s nothing Dave loves more than watching an attractive game of football, regardless of who’s playing it. He has been quoted as saying he loves Paul Scholes because: “He can’t tackle.” And loves Roy Keane because: “He can.” Take from that what you will!
Simon Sanders
Senior Academy/GK Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Coach
・English FA Level 1 Qualified Coach
・St. Martins Primary School – Head Coach
・Holder of FA Certificates in Soccer Parenting & Registered FA ‘Soccer Star’ Coach
・Bachelor of Arts – Politics & Philosophy
When asked who Simon’s favorite player was he answered: “Thierry Henry; because he has everything a player could ever want – speed, strength, composure, vision, great skill and he is an entertainer.” Simon’s analysis of Henry actually describes many of his own attributes as a coach at the British Football Academy. He’s quick to think on his feet when it comes to tweaking his pre-planned sessions to cater to unforeseen circumstances, has a strong and passionate will to share his love of football with younger generations, is as composed as any other coach in the Academy when the pressure’s on, has the vision to see how each of his sessions are linked and form a ‘total football program’ and possesses the skill as a coach to see each and every session through to positive fruition. Simon himself is also a great entertainer and during his sessions, as the kids play and learn about football, they do so with beaming smiles thanks to Simon.
Alexander
Academy Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Coach
・Tranmere Rovers/PRC – Coach
・BSc in Sports Coaching from University of Chester
Our newest full-time coach is a graduate of the British School Tokyo having studied there from 2010 ~ 2012. An Avid Arsenal fan, Alex is a footballer with a huge passion to coach the game he loves. After spending 15 months coaching School kids & local clubs in China, Alex returned to Tokyo where his parents still live so he could immerse himself in Japanese culture while continuing to coach football.
Toma Ochiai
Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Assistant Coach
・Konami Sports Club Nishinomiya Branch – Football Department Head
・Action Soccer Nishinomiya – League Organizer
・Senior Mens Westhants – Assistant Coach
・Senior Womens Wolfvegas – Assistant Coach
・Valley United SC, Mers Athletic Club, Canadian Academy Varsity Soccer – Player
Half-French, half-Japanese and full of passion, Toma worked as head of the football department for the Nishinomiya Konami Sports Club. There he coached and organized practices for football classes catering to a variety of age groups before coming to Tokyo.
Toma has coached preschoolers to adults in both Japan and abroad but one thing has remained constant throughout his years: getting all his players engaged and improving their mastery with the ball. This is why Toma’s practices gravitate towards exercises that emulate game-like experiences while incorporating a maximum amount of touches on the ball.
An advocater of positivity on the pitch, its no surprise that one of his strongest inspirations is Roanldinho, not for his aesthetic football ability but for his constant smile while playing.
Abdoulie Cham (Chama)
Coach
・British Football Academy Tokyo – Coach
・Yokohama International School – Varsity Coach
・Tokyo Metropolis League – Referee
・BSc in Physical Education, Sports Science and Management from Loughborough University.
From ‘The Gambia’ Chama is our newest assistant coach but he immediately became a big favourite with the kids.
A huge Liverpool fan, Chama’s favourite player is Sadio Mana from Senegal (Gambia’s neighbour). Chama himself is a very able striker who glides past players & scores a lot of goals.
Not only is Chama a big favourite of the kids at BFA but he has also helped us distribute football equipment we have donated to the kids in his home Gambia making him a very popular man.
