Khalid originally started out as a player in PTSA's football sessions for young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Two years later, and he is very much part of the family, acting as an assistant coach to SEND Youth and Sports Development Lead Paul Davis and helping to run weekly sessions in Westminster. He also oversees PTSA's Holiday Activities & Food (HAF) programme, which the organisation runs in multiple boroughs across London.It is perhaps of little surprise that coaching has come naturally to the 26-year-old, as his brother, Liban, has carved out a career within the game, too, coaching at professional clubs including QPR and Barnet. Playing and coaching football really gives me confidence," said Khalid. "Learning different ways of coaching and helping players learn new technical skills is really enjoyable."One of the aspects I love most is getting players ready for match day, getting them in the right mentality."Reflecting on the importance that PTSA's SEND sessions hold within the local community, Khalid added: "They help remind young people that no matter your disability, you can still chase your dreams."
