Padmore grew up in Trinidad and Tobago. After emigrating to New York in 1970, he started playing soccer in a league in Prospect Park. In 1986, he began coaching his children, Rhonda and Michael, in the Staten Island Youth Soccer League. From 1986-1996, Padmore coached intramural teams at St. Rita\u2019s. In 1994, when the club needed a new director, Padmore stepped up and ran the club for two years while also continuing to coach.<\/p>\n
In 1990, Padmore also started coaching at Staten Island United, doing so for the next 14 years, plus serving as club Secretary in 1998 and 1999.<\/p>\n
Padmore is best known today as a referee, which he has done with a passion for over three decades. He was president of the Staten Island Soccer Referees Association from 2003-2005, and has been the SIYSL assignor for the past two decades. He was inducted into the SIYSL Hall of Fame in 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Overview: Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association announced that Tony Padmore has been inducted into the Eastern New…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":113806,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[50596,50597,50598,9,24,63,134,136,135,50599,50600],"class_list":{"0":"post-113805","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-staten-island","8":"tag-eastern-new-york-soccer-hall-of-fame","9":"tag-eastern-new-york-youth-soccer-association","10":"tag-enyysa","11":"tag-new-york","12":"tag-new-york-city","13":"tag-nyc","14":"tag-staten-island","15":"tag-staten-island-headlines","16":"tag-staten-island-news","17":"tag-tony-padmore","18":"tag-trinidad-and-tobago"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113805"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113805\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/113806"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
