VICTORY THROUGH HARMONY: - Jayl is a lifetime supporter of Arsenal FC & Co-Founder & Life President of the Official Arsenal Gloucester Supporter's Club. He founded the club with his wife Niki in 2004, after they completed a special Health & Fitness Course through Arsenal FC. As Chairman and Secretary of the club, they became Jayl & Niki Gunner - with the VICTORY THROUGH HARMONY concept of 'brethren regardless of background, colour or creed'. All related as brothers and sisters through the common ground of having 'Arsenal in the Blood'. Original AGSC Logo + Jayl & Niki with FA Cup Highbury 2003 ....

Leading up to the club's formation, throughout 2002-03, Jayl and Niki studied and completed the 'Sport for Life' (Foundation Studies in Exercise) course through Arsenal FC; in conjunction with the Ealing, Hammersmith and West London College. The course concentrated on many aspects of fitness, health and exercise, including diet & nutrition, injury prevention, stretching and designing work-out programmes. Essentially 'Fitness - the Arsene Wenger way!' They were then very honoured to be presented with their certificates at a special event at Highbury, by none other than Jayl's boyhood hero - Charlie George. CLICK ON LINK BELOW ....

VICTORY THROUGH HARMONY: - In 2006, Jayl & Niki organized for one of our very own supporter's club members - a brave young man called Luke Morris; who was fighting a most challenging and painful life-threatening illness - to visit the players at London Colney. Afterwards, Jayl & Niki were honoured to receive a signed picture of all the players and also a Letter of Gratitude and photos from Luke himself. Something we treasure to this very day.

And although North Bank didn't win the tournament, many young men played for the team - with dreams coming true - to play on the pitch at Highbury & the Emirates, and use the dressing rooms and share the same spaces as the Arsenal players themselves.

During this time, Jayl won an Outstanding Player Award and went on to play 100 consecutive games between 2008-2009. CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW ....
