Charlie Hewitt
Current Club
Lye Town FC
Centre Back
Charlie is a commanding centre back who thrives on defending and takes pride in being physical and committed, never shying away from a challenge. He reads the game exceptionally well and is a confident leader at the back, consistently organising and directing the defensive line. Dominant in the air on both ends of the pitch, Charlie is a major asset defensively and a consistent threat from set pieces, contributing goals with his aerial presence and timing. Comfortable in possession, he can play out from the back with confidence, but also shows strong decision-making by varying his distribution and going long when required to meet the demands of the game.

“I am writing to provide a footballing reference for Charlie Hewitt, whom I have had the pleasure of working with during their time at The Albion foundation.
Charlie has consistently demonstrated a high level of commitment, discipline, and professionalism both on and off the pitch. He is a dedicated student-athlete who approaches training and competition with a strong work ethic and a clear desire to improve. Their attitude towards coaching, teammates, and opposition has always been exemplary.
From a footballing perspective, Charlie is a reliable and intelligent player who understands the demands of the game. Charlie shows good technical ability, strong game awareness, and a willingness to take responsibility in key moments. Equally important, he positive presence within the squad, contributing to team culture through leadership, communication, and support for others.
Beyond football, Charlie has balanced their academic commitments effectively alongside their sporting responsibilities, demonstrating maturity and time-management skills that will serve them well in a college environment in the United States.
I have no hesitation in recommending Charlie Hewitt for opportunities within football. I am confident they will be an asset to any programme and will represent their club with integrity and determination.”
