CLUB AND THE PLAYERS
 
Soccer at OWSC was made a reality in 2007 with the willingness and the capability of the players and with the support of the OWSC senior members and few of our old boys. It was a fresh start for the players as it was the first time for each player to experience club level football, at the time all the players who are committing themselves for OWSC Soccer have just Left school and who have played soccer at Wesley College. And they wished to be a part of their school even after completing their studies and as the second thought they wanted to play football for the immense love that our players had for the game and they wanted to achieve high standard and wanted to play good level of football. It was the beginning of a long and hard run for the players and the Manager of Football at OWSC. In its inception our credit goes to our hard working coach Mr. P. D. Sangadasa, well known as Ranjith Master. We thank him for his commitments and contribution to the upliftment of the standard of soccer at OWSC.
 
We had our tough times in the beginning to come up to an average level. And each year we had an improvement to be proud of our players. As we came so far and still want to go far, because of the love and the passion that all the players have for the game and the friendship that each player has with their team mate.
 
The year 2010 brought a remarkable change to our soccer team with the arrival of the new coach Mr. Ronny Pakeer Ali, through him our team was able to experience and learn good football and our team was able to come up in the standard of playing the game.
 
Unfortunately few of our players had to leave OWSC Soccer club to join much recognized and well experienced clubs, we had players who joined Ratnam Sports Club / Renown Sports Club / Blue Star Sports Club Kaluthara and Colombo Football Club. We are proud to produce players of high caliber and we wish them a good future in their career and in their football life.
Our aim and goal, to be a part of the top level clubs in Sri Lanka and to play good standard of football with a well associated team members consisting of friends.
 
We wish all the best for our OWSC Soccer team and we hope our future endeavors bring us close to our goal and aim and will help us to carry on the Soccer at OWSC and make this game a part of our lives.
