Southgate Colts would like to play tribute to one of our former youth coaches Barry Kinver who sadly passed away this year.

Barry was an inspirational coach, and alongside Trevor Watkins between 1996 and 2001 ran a very successful Southgate Youth team that won many honours in the DJM.

Barry’s achievements were not confined to youth football he was a successful player and manager for many local teams, Launceston, Southgate, Altarnun, Lifton and Abru to name but a few and he was a well respected member of the football and wider community.

Always ready for a conversation as he took his long walks around Launceston Barry will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Our thoughts and condolences go out to Barry’s family.
