Monday Motivation Positivity

28 Oct, 2024
You know we love positivity! So here’s a #mondaymotivation post! Meet Joshua! Joshua started his football journey with Linthwaite Football Club just under 12 months ago, via our Pan-Disability Friday Night Fun Football Comet Sessions! Since this time, Joshua has broken boundaries & surprised his Parents & Coaches. He doesn’t only attending our Comet Pan-Disability Sessions,he is now also playing within mainstream grassroots football in one of our U11 Teams. Joshua has had his ups and downs since joining our U11’s, due to his medical condition. Whenever he has flare ups, he still comes and watches his teammates, cheering them on from the sidelines. 2 weeks ago, he was on crutches unable to play. However yesterday, 2 weeks later he was the team’s Player Of The Match! His resilience and determination to play is more than any player we’ve seen. Well done Joshua. Let’s all show him some Love & Support! This is one of the success stories we will be celebrating when our Pan-Disability Sessions turn 1 years old on the 11th November! A true display of Courage, Determination & Linthwaite Spirit. Showcasing that at Linthwaite Football Club, football is inclusive & available for everyone!
