Who are you playing today, where are you playing, and what's your score prediction? 👇 But before you step onto that pitch, I want you to remember ONE thing… GO OUT THERE WITH ONE MISSION… 🔥 ENJOY EVERY SECOND AND HAVE AS MUCH FUN AS POSSIBLE! And please remember something VERY important… NEVER, EVER allow another player, coach, parent or anyone shouting from the sidelines to make you feel worthless or doubt your ability as a goalkeeper! NOBODY – AND I MEAN NOBODY – IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO TAKE AWAY YOUR CONFIDENCE, YOUR HAPPINESS OR YOUR LOVE FOR GOALKEEPING! ❤️ You will make mistakes. EVERY goalkeeper does, even the world's best! But mistakes don't define you. What defines you is your courage to stand between those posts, give everything you've got and NEVER stop believing in yourself. Play with confidence. Play with pride. But above everything else, PLAY WITH A SMILE! 🧤💪 Good luck, everyone. I'm rooting for you all! Ray ❤️⚽

A little bit of advice for applying ice to aches and injuries 🤣🤣

Today i made my debut for Bootle fc women's first team. I kept a clean sheet in a fantastic 18-0 win. I wasn't very busy in goal but made saves when needed and was quick off my line and cleared up at the back when called upon

Each Monday, I want you to share your reflections from your game over the weekend — or your training session if you did not play. Tell us what you felt went well, but also be honest about what did not go so well. If you made a mistake, share: 1. What happened? 2. What could you have done differently? Remember, every mistake can be turned into a positive if you learn from it and move on. If everyone shares their reflections, comments on each other's posts and offers support or advice, I genuinely believe Monday Reflection could become one of the most powerful parts of this community. It gives you the chance to look back, learn, make small adjustments and improve your game week after week. So, how did your weekend go? Share your game or training reflections below. Ray

Only a few weeks into the season and already we've had several games postponed as the other sides can't field a team. How did teams go all summer without addressing a lack of numbers?? We play 11 a side (U14s) and have 17 players registered. We get at least 16 for every session. How are teams still struggling to field a team? Dylan did play for his school team and earn a clean sheet with some top saves. They have another fixture in the National Cup this week. Is everyone else keeping busy?
