Over 100 hosts on one pitch and a number that stuck with everyone
The people in this picture have covered more than 35,000 games between them š¤Æ
Think about what one game means to the people in it
Someone new to a city who doesnāt know anybody yet
Someone whoās had a long week and needs an hour to clear their head
Someone who hasnāt played since school and is nervous about being rubbish, then scores and feels ten years younger
Multiply that by 35,000 and you start to understand what hosting actually is š
Every single one of those games came from you deciding to look after a session and then actually doing it, week after week, in all weathers
Thereās something about football that makes friends for life š«
The games youāre hosting now will still be on someoneās calendar in 5, 10 and 20 years time
Thatās what youāve done!
With the same love for the game on hundreds of different pitches
To everyone who came and to every host who couldnāt make it, thank you and see you next time!
Weāre lucky to have you ā¤ļøā½ļø
Cheers for Saturday and for every week that isnāt Saturday š¤
