Another fantastic week at Lewis’s Football Fun!
Despite a few weather challenges, we managed to run 100% of our sessions, keeping all our young footballers active and engaged.
Bishop Sessions: This week featured some intense technical drills, especially with the younger groups. We took time to go in-depth on coaching points, helping players push to the next level. It’s always great to see their skills and understanding improving week by week.
Saturday at Devon Park: Coach Jackson led some brilliant sessions, and we were delighted to celebrate Jenson’s birthday—always a highlight of the week! Feedback from parents has been wonderful, and it’s great to see the children enjoying themselves while learning.
Sunday Sessions: The Cubs and Eagles groups were back indoors with Coach Sam, working hard on technique and teamwork. Outside, the girls at Avengers continued to impress with two strong sessions, showing real improvement both technically and physically. Floating between the sessions, it’s clear how much progress our players are making.
Monday Madness: Mondays never disappoint! With nine groups across the day, every child demonstrated a fantastic attitude. Whether I was able to spend five seconds or five minutes with a player, the enthusiasm and effort from everyone was inspiring. Big thanks to our coaches and parents for their continued support—it really makes a difference.
Player of the Month: Congratulations to Teddy Harrison for being our latest Player of the Month! Teddy’s dedication and hard work have been exceptional. November’s Player of the Month will be announced soon, so keep pushing right to the end of the month for your chance to be recognised.
Seasonal Reminders: As the weather turns colder, don’t forget to grab winter gear from the Lewis’s Football Fun shop—coats, woolly hats, and more. Also, please ensure children bring drinks, boots, and shin pads for safety during all sessions.
Exciting Upcoming Events:
Match Week: Get ready for full matches from start to finish, with match reports posted online. Dates to be confirmed.
Christmas Party: Mark your calendars! Our party will take place on Thursday 18th December, a low-cost, fun celebration for players and siblings. More information will be shared soon.
Thank you to all players, parents, and coaches for another incredible week of football fun. Let’s keep the momentum going and finish the month strong!
