โฝ Every England player starts somewhere... and for two of the Midlands' biggest football stars, it all began at grassroots clubs.
Before representing England on the world stage, Jude Bellingham took his first footballing steps at Stourbridge Juniors, while Morgan Rogers started his journey with Halas Hawks in Halesowen. Today, they're inspiring the next generation while proudly representing both their country and the Midlands.
Who knows where the next Jude or Morgan could come from?
Through the Cash for Kids Midlands Sports Challenge, we're helping grassroots sports clubs raise vital funds so they can make sport more accessible for children and young people across our region.
