The veteran frontman achieved Non-League legendary status after a stellar career which yielded over 600 senior appearances and almost half as many goals.
Now as a coach, his path is beginning to take a similar trajectory and is currently eyeing an EIGHTH of his trophy-laden career.
But while the 40-year-old can apply the brakes somewhat and reflect on a proud playing career, he’s also ready to board the rollercoaster ride all over again – this time as a role model to his young protege Harvey.
Kedwell Jnr, 19, signed his first professional contract with Charlton Athletic back in the summer and is enjoying his first taste of senior football on loan at National League side Dagenham & Redbridge, where he plays under his Dad’s former Gillingham teammate Ben Strevens.
But while Junior kickstarts his fledgling career at Victoria Road, 26 miles away across the Kent border, Dad Danny is adding a new string his bow.
As player/assistant boss to chief Kevin Hake, Kedwell has helped lead the Chats to back-to-back promotions from Step 5 and now sit in the top two of the Isthmian Premier and on the brink of National League South.
Kedwell is enjoying his football as much as ever but admits his focus quite often wanders elsewhere.
