Keith Smith
Keith was taken from us suddenly at the age of 41. We are honestly lost for words.
Keith was an unbelievably generous and loving character. He wore his heart on his sleeve and his passion for grassroots football, and more importantly, for Edina Hibs was huge.
Keith started coaching with Edina Hibs in 2014 and was pivotal in the rebuilding of the club at that time. He has played a huge role in the success of the club since then.
Keith believed that all kids should have accessible, free / affordable football activities. He was passionate about this, and anyone that knew him at Edina will second that. He gave countless local kids a great start in life!
Keith never took a penny for coaching and all he talked about was providing this service to local kids. Its this drive and heart that led him to be the brilliant person he was and a genuine community hero to many local kids. The phrase “Mr Edina” has never been more accurate.
We have lost a brilliant coach, but we have also lost a dear friend. The club is united with Keith’s family in mourning this devastating loss.
RIP Keith. You’ll be sorely missed.
