Jack Downer is widely known for his talents as a street footballer player and football freestyler. Having garnered a huge following, with over 252k subscribers on his YouTube channel and an incredible 600,000 plus followers on Instagram, Jack is now sought as entertainment for corporate events. Forging a brand identity for himself under the name ‘Street Panna’, Jack has played alongside professionals and mastered the art of akkas, flickups and groundmoves.
Specialising in street football, Jack is best known for Panna- a one on one game with the aim to pass the football through the opponent's legs and recover the ball on the other side. His talents as a street footballer have seen Jack become a part of the Adidas Tango Squad and he has also become the London Panna Champion and won at the Superball Panna World Championships. Taking his inspiration from Ronaldinho, Jack has been fortunate to play alongside many professional footballers, including the likes of David Beckham.
Before getting into the world of street football, Jack showed promise as a traditional football player. He caught the eye of Charleston Athletic, playing as a right-back but unfortunately was dropped from interest after he had to take time out due to injury and surgery. During his recovery, Jack found his love for street football and Panna and continued to practise his skills in this new form of football.
Since finding his passions for Panna, Jack has gone on to become a champion of the sport. Jack has made headlines as one of the Top 8 in the World Panna Championships and displayed his talents as the winner of the Kitbag London Panna Tournament back in 2018. Now Jack uses his YouTube channel Street Panna to provide audiences with tutorials on how to master the art of Panna and hopes to inspire future generations to move away from traditional mainstream football to the more unique street football.
With unique and eye-catching talent, Jack is the perfect individual to increase the visibility of freestyle football and perform at events. A budding social influencer, Jack is also perfect to have as a brand ambassador and for football-related campaigns.
