Peake Urchins

Hornchurch have just announced the arrival of winger Lennon Peake.

Lennon was a West Ham United Academy product who played for the Hammers Under 21 side, who saw his career severely interrupted by two serious injuries, both of which required surgery and significant rehabilitation- keeping him off the pitch for two years. Lennon had no luck whatsoever, damaging his ACL, MCL, LCL and meniscus, seeing his career severely threatened.

He left the Hammers- for whom he started playing aged six- early this year for Cardiff City, and has played Under 21 football in Wales.
