Another collage of shots I took at the Luxol football nursery the Saturday before last. After a good half hour or more of teaching various skills to the boys – 4 year olds – by two young qualified coaches it was time for the boys to have a short football match. Half of them were made to wear this orange overall - Max was one of them.
I was amazed to see so much activity at Luxol Football Club - the football pitch and several other smaller pitches around it were full of youngsters of different ages learning different skills by many coaches. Not like it was in my days – anything you knew was self thought then.
Joke: The new manager of Bolton Wanderers struggling football team is strict and won't stand any nonsense.
Last Saturday, he caught my friend Phil and another fan climbing over the stadium wall and was angry with them. He grabbed them by the neck and said: "Get back in there and watch the game until it finishes!"
Thank you so much for looking and for all the lovely comments on yesterday's picture.
I used to follow my sons to their rugby games and made video films. One day I was hit on the head by the ball coming from nowhere!!!! Ha ha that was not the last time I had to go to a game. Precious for his album.
Max looks like he is enjoying himself. A great collage for Max to look back on.
