I am beyond angry. I am devastated! I’m shaking as I write this because I cannot understand how ONE person - one adult - can inflict so much emotional damage on an 11-year-old boy. My son used to be full of light. He lived and breathed goalkeeping. He had passion, hope, fire - this beautiful spark that made him feel unstoppable. And now? Now he’s a shattered version of himself. He’s drowning in self-doubt, questioning everything he used to love. He genuinely believes he’s not good enough to be a goalkeeper anymore. An eleven-year-old child should never feel that way. And what breaks me the most is that the very people who were supposed to protect him, guide him, nurture him, DEVELOP him - the ones he trusted - are the same ones who tore him apart. His so-called coach, the one who promised him the world, who stood in front of him telling him how “amazing” he was… that same man turned around and ripped him to pieces that no one else saw. How can someone build up a child with one breath and destroy him with the next? Does he even realise what he’s done to my son? No. He doesn’t. And he carries on with his life as if nothing happened. As if he hasn’t left an 11-year-old boy picking up the broken pieces of his confidence. The damage is done, and he doesn’t give a damn. And everyone around him still supports him and praises him and we are classed as pests, a nuisance and causing trouble! Meanwhile, I’m left watching my son crumble. My heart aches - physically aches - for my boy. And I don’t know how to bring his spark back. 😭 For the first time in over two years, he refused to go to goalkeeper training. He said, “I can’t dive… I’m not good enough… the other boys are better, so what’s the point?” Hearing those words from a child who used to throw himself around the pitch with joy and bravery tore something inside me. And the truth? He is an amazing keeper. So many people have told him that—coaches, parents, players. But it doesn’t matter. When a child with ADHD hears something negative—especially from someone he admires—it cuts deeper than anyone realises. It sticks. It festers. It becomes truth to them.

Each week, I invite you to share your biggest win. This isn't about the scoreline, but rather what aspects of your goalkeeping you improved or what new product you got to enhance your game. Additionally, can you name three things you are grateful for? These don't have to be goalkeeper-related. The reason I do this is simple: everyone has tough weeks. Reflecting on and writing down your recent wins and what you're grateful for is a PROVEN way to realise that life is pretty great and you're a very lucky person.

I have come up with a simple way to help our community save money on the gear you want most. Each month, I will be ordering selected products and listing them on a hidden page on www.j4ksports.com — available only to our community. These products will be cheaper than anything else on the main website. Here’s how it works: You tell me which products you’d like me to source — rebounders, bags, caps, shin pads, etc Once I see what people are asking for, I will find the best deals and announce what I am about to order in advance. I will then list these items on a private J4K page at a special pre-order price. For example: if I announce goalkeeper rebounders, you might be able to pre-order them for £25/$25, instead of the usual £40/$40 retail price once they are in stock. The only catch is that these will be pre-paid offers. The reason I’m doing it this way is because in the past, I tried something similar. Lots of people were encouraging me to order certain products, and in good faith, I spent my own money to get them in stock. But once the products arrived, most of those who said they’d buy didn’t follow through — which left me with a pile of stock to sell on my own. So this way it is win-win — you save money, and this helps me to source the right stock for you and the goalkeeper community. And don’t worry — all the usual J4K guarantees apply. If you’re not happy with your product, you’ll still get your money-back guarantee, same as any other order from J4K. So - if you are interested, lets have a 'hell yes ray in comments below - and please let me know what products you would like me to get for you ' 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 Please try to name as many as you can (especially products you currently use) - This way, if i see a pattern - i will then try to source these products for you all.
