Matt Le Tissier Natural Coaching are delighted to be working closely with Toynbee School on a New Project, where our Coaching Team of Francis Benali, Ben Jefford & Joe Partington will be delivering Professional Football Coaching to School Pupils, Boys and Girls, who are interested in developing their Footballing Skills.

Matt Le Tissier is delighted to welcome Eastleigh FC's Joe Partington & Welling Utd's Ben Jefford to The MLT Natural Coaching Team

As Matt Le Tissier Natural Coaching embarks on a 4th Season, we wish to enhance our MLT Natural Coaching Programme for every player who has been invited to join our “Family”.

We believe that by strengthening our MLT Natural Coaching Team, welcoming Joe Partington, Eastleigh FC and Ben Jefford, Welling Utd, both playing in the Vanarama National League, will have a greater positive influence on our young players, enhancing their natural talent.


After coming through the ranks at Premier League AFC Bournemouth, Joe Partington has found his feet at Eastleigh becoming a key part of the Team's Defence. 

With the ability to play Right Back or Centre Back, Joe is demonstrating that he's a force to be reckoned with at Vanarama National League level and all us at MLTNC hope Joe can help Eastleigh FC achieve promotion to the Football League this season.

Likewise, Ben Jefford is holding his own at Welling United FC, now being a regular starter for the Team and by picking up 4 Man of the Match Awards out of their opening 7 games, proving what an asset he is in the Vanarama National League.





We believe that both these additions to our Coaching Team are fantastic role models for all our Players, and they can give a Professional Player's perspective on the Game as well as buying into Matt's "Playing with Freedom" Philosophy.

So please look out for Joe & Ben's results on Gillette Soccer Saturday (and to see if they've scored!!), or if you go down to watch Eastleigh games, cheer Joe on!
