Presentation Evening 2012

The annual presentation evening that celebrated Leicester Nirvana FC's 30th anniversary attracted an audience of  over 350 people.  The event was held at the Empire Banqueting Hall on Saturday 12th May and was attended by the now newly appointed Lord Mayor Councillor Osman along with Assistant Mayors Councillors Clair and Dawood, and Ward Councillor Potter.

Councillors commented that Nirvana is an important part of our community and that they support the work of the club.

Honorary guests presented trophies to the youth including league officials and ex Nirvana player’s, now playing professional footballer, Cleveland Taylor and Adi Yussuf, just 2 of many who continue to take time out of their schedule to support the club. 

Leicester Nirvana has historically produced numerous players that progress on to academy football with professional clubs before becoming professional footballers. 

The club will be holding a Fun Day and Mini soccer tournament on the 7th July to continue it's yearly celebration.
