Stoke Mandeville & Kingsbrook Football Club

🌟⚽️ OUR U7s’ FIRST EVER GAMES! ⚽️🌟
What a brilliant moment for our Under 7s yesterday!
For the very first time, EIGHT Stoke Mandeville & Kingsbrook FC 3v3 teams pulled on the shirt and represented the club in their first ever competitive football experience! 🦌
And we have to say… 3v3 football at this age is absolutely fantastic.
More touches of the ball.
More involvement.
More goals.
More decisions.
More confidence.
And most importantly… MORE FUN! 🙌
With only three players on each side, there’s nowhere for a child to disappear in the game. Everyone gets involved, everyone gets opportunities on the ball and everyone gets the chance to attack, defend, score goals and learn.
At U7, football shouldn’t be about league tables, results or pressure. It should be about falling in love with the game.
That’s exactly what we saw yesterday — lots of football, lots of goals and plenty of huge smiles!
A massive well done to every single one of our young Stags who took part. For many of them, this was the first of hopefully hundreds of matches in a Stoke Mandeville & Kingsbrook shirt.
And a huge thank you to our coaches and parents for making their first experience of grassroots football such a positive one.
8 teams. 24 little footballers on the pitch at a time. One brilliant start to their grassroots journey. 💙🦌
Welcome to matchdays, U7s! 💙⚽️
