Who are you playing this weekend, 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 ❤️⚽

How life feels sometimes at least My training kit is washed 🤣

So with me taking on a new team in a Sunday I have had to stop training that I would normally do. I owe a lot to the training I have had but simply can't fit it all in . Monday training for my 11 aside team. Tuesday basketball at school Wednesday football at school and team training. Saturday games Sunday games. Thursday and Friday are used to make sure school work is upto date and spending time with the family. I hope to go back to the training but ATM it's not feasible

This quick explains why you should not! What is the most you have paid for goalkeeper gloves?? Comment below!

Despite the freezing evening and nearly zero temperatures , the lights are on and bright, lots of coaches around and actively helping out, the parents wrapped warm and the place is absolutely buzzing with happy kids of different ages for the evening team trainings at our regional sport centre in the middle of Ireland. Delighted to see here so many kids out and playing, very positive atmosphere ⚽️🥅🧤👍(few photos of the place)
