I'd have to say it's a continuous feeling of being proud as a GK parent with my 8yo daughter. She's still breaking down little barriers all the time and getting really great comments from opposition coaches/ parents etc. Definitely saving the team from losses. I think the latest moment that stood out was last Saturday in a cup qtr final game where she pulled off one of the best saves I've seen her do yet, it just looked so relaxed and natural saving one flying across the goal towards the corner, and the smile on her face when she'd saved other shots and got to do the "big kick". She was going for goal 😂😂😂

@Freddie Beech Thanks. I think parents (both teams) and the teams coaches giving praise and cheering is so important for confidence building in young keepers. I know it gives my little one a boost so that's great that Freddie had all that going on!

Well done 👍🏻

@Nathan Hallwood Absolutely brutal level of power on some of them 😂😂. It was bad enough last Saturday when she banged her mouth on the astro making a save that flipped behind her so all she could do was sprawl out trying to reach. We definitely don't need random power shots hitting her in the face for no good reason, those are saved for the games 😂

@Nathan Hallwood yeah a few tears and she came running over to me. Luckily no damage done and she went back out about 30 seconds later to an applause from both teams parents and coaches which was really nice for her. A saves a save right, even if it's the face 😂😂😂

Brilliant 👍🏻
