If a parent sees their child standing and shivering more than they see them playing, that family will not be back.

Their child, the person they care about more than anything in the world, is standing still & waiting for something to happen.

That is where participation dies.

Young footballers…. one bit of advice from an old guy that’s been round the block a few times. Don’t chase the steps let the steps chase you! So many of you out there desperate to play that extra level, it which will cost you long term .sitting on a bench getting splinters losing your real friends and connections be careful ⚽️

Despite having every conceivable tv package I very rarely watch football now , the modern game bores me senseless, everything about it, the fans /barstoollers add VAR, the media's presentation of the game all rubbish

🤯 Resentment

🛎️Parent / Coaches leaving their kids on for full games

🤓 It’s fine until the kids start to notice favouritism

🚮 Then your Kid ends up being the outcast hated because of your decision not to teach him he’s she has to be part of a team , has to be a sub .

💡 Think about it , treat everyone equally
