Shared this on my Instagram as well. Hopefully this helps anybody interested, every thing we do as goalies we can grow from, so I wanted to share where I have grown this year.

I feel its boring now that no football or classes are on I'm so used a routine...I'm just going to have to take a ball go to a field n get some fitness in as the hard work will start all over again soon what's everyone else doing to keep active

Guys, i was concerned when i read the below post by @Rachael Holmes - so i thought i would do a short video to not only help Rachael, and Jaxon, but as i know sadly most of you in this community will go through a similar experience - thought i would record to help you. IF YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH SOMETHING SIMILAR - WHAT DID YOU DO ? PLEASE COMMENT BELOW 👇 I am beyond angry. I am devastated! I’m shaking as I write this because I cannot understand how ONE person - one adult - can inflict so much emotional damage on an 11-year-old boy. My son used to be full of light. He lived and breathed goalkeeping. He had passion, hope, fire - this beautiful spark that made him feel unstoppable. And now? Now he’s a shattered version of himself. He’s drowning in self-doubt, questioning everything he used to love. He genuinely believes he’s not good enough to be a goalkeeper anymore. An eleven-year-old child should never feel that way. And what breaks me the most is that the very people who were supposed to protect him, guide him, nurture him, DEVELOP him - the ones he trusted - are the same ones who tore him apart. His so-called coach, the one who promised him the world, who stood in front of him telling him how “amazing” he was… that same man turned around and ripped him to pieces that no one else saw. How can someone build up a child with one breath and destroy him with the next? Does he even realise what he’s done to my son? No. He doesn’t. And he carries on with his life as if nothing happened. As if he hasn’t left an 11-year-old boy picking up the broken pieces of his confidence. The damage is done, and he doesn’t give a damn. And everyone around him still supports him and praises him and we are classed as pests, a nuisance and causing trouble! Meanwhile, I’m left watching my son crumble. My heart aches - physically aches - for my boy. And I don’t know how to bring his spark back. 😭 For the first time in over two years, he refused to go to goalkeeper training. He said, “I can’t dive… I’m not good enough… the other boys are better, so what’s the point?” Hearing those words from a child who used to throw himself around the pitch with joy and bravery tore something inside me.

Hey guys! Who’s up for a live meetup and chat today at 7pm UK time? I don’t have a set agenda, so this is your chance to ask anything. It’s a great opportunity to connect with me and meet other members you haven't chatted with yet! I’d also love to hear your ideas on how we can make this community even better in 2026. IMPORTANT: To keep this a safe and high-quality space, this will be a "Cameras On" session. It’s important that we know who we’re talking to—so please note that anyone with their camera off will be removed from the call. If enough people comment below to confirm they can make it, I’ll drop the link. Let me know ASAP and I'll confirm if we are "good to go" in a couple of hours! — Ray
