#HerGameOurPride
What bigger honour is there than to play football for your country? And what bigger dream than to win the World Cup? Well, thanks to the England Amputee Football Association, I’m going to do both.
Back in March I blogged about attending Europe’s first International Training Camp in Poland where I met the Queen of amputee football, Shelbee Clarke. Fast forward 6 months and England are ready to launch our national squad.
Amputee football is only 7-a-side but we need more women to bolster the team so we can compete in international competitions… and we seriously do have a chance of winning the World Cup. It’s such a new sport that the trophies are there for the taking.
The first training session is Nov 18th at Reaseheath College in Nantwich and we would love any eager amputees to join us.
Please just contact me for a chat about it on any of my social media platforms or contact Owen Coyle who’s in charge of England Amputee Football on the address below:
Football was my life, and I’m sure, like many of my amputee readers, it’s simply wonderful when you find a way to adapt, so you can still have success in the things that you love.
This is when the England training camps will take place:
Now watch this space. We’re going to take over the world!
