Behind every young goalkeeper is a parent making quiet sacrifices that often go unseen. Early mornings, late nights, long drives in all weather… standing on the sidelines in the cold, the wind, and the rain. Washing muddy kits, buying gloves that barely last a season, and always being there—win, lose, or draw. Goalkeeping isn’t the glamorous position. It takes courage, resilience, and a mindset that not everyone understands. And as parents, you feel every save, every mistake, every moment—but you still show up with unwavering support. You’re not just raising a goalkeeper—you’re helping build confidence, character, and strength that will last far beyond the pitch. To all the parents backing their number 1… your sacrifices don’t go unnoticed.

This is the time of the week we all look forward to waking up Matchday mornings maybe feeling nervous or have our own routines for game day Enjoy it everyone go smash it and remember positive mindset and most of all enjoy it two phrases we say to Fred before a game “Be a gold fish” if anything goes wrong forget about it and move on “You never know who could be watching” this is because of how many scouts we see about with our matches but makes him think to always perform the best and also when things get tough react in the right way instead of losing our head and composure Happy weekend everyone good luck

On Wednesday Wilson had a last minute game, he normally shares game time with another goal keeper but he was away for Easter. So Wilson was given the chance to play the whole match - (back story) most game days Wilson will have a few negative moments before the match and possibly during where I have to try and pull him out he can also get very distracted during the game and be silly. This small gesture was such a boost to Wilson’s confidence he warmed up brilliantly and stayed focused and confident during the whole game. He made some great saves and earnt parents player of the match. I also got a message from the manager of the other team saying how great he played. 🤩💪🏻 Don’t get me wrong we had a couple of little dances during the match but I’m pretty sure this is part of his way to help him focus 🤣🤦‍♀️💙
