Othniel Adoma, from Bracknell, Berkshire, died more than three weeks after the single vehicle crash.

The vigil took place at Birch Hill Recreation Ground in Bracknell on Friday evening, with candles lit and balloons released in Othniel's memory.

Organisers described it as a "time to reflect, to cry, to laugh and to find comfort in one another - and in his family - as we remember the light Othniel brought to all of our lives".

Mitch Noble, who helped organise the vigil and a fundraiser for the family which has raised more than £8,000, called Othniel a "super-friendly and nice lad".

Mr Noble, who is also the coach of Crowthorne FC where Othniel was a player, described him as "quite a shy, timid lad, until he's got a football at his feet".
