Footie Star

Good day for Ethan today.

He had a school pal round after school for a play date, which they were both excited about.

Then at his weekly football class at Xcite, Ethan was awarded the player of the week trophy.

To cap it off, he has recently plucked up the courage to join in Friday night football matches. He's in a local team and loves their Sunday training sessions. But after a bad experience earlier this year he has refused to go and join in with any of the Friday / Saturday matches against local teams. Last week he went and enjoyed it so went back tonight. After the session, the coach wrote on Facebook "Big shout out to Ethan who since we've had the little guy was low on confidence and fairly shy but tonight I saw him tackling, taking players and shooting, which shows continued support not just develops players, but as little humans"!

So proud of my wee man!
